The NBC6 people are so overjoyed at stealing the #1 spot in the morning news from 7news that they brought some cake and had a station-wide celebration. They even made a pretty graphic showing their ratings vs. those of the other stations and showing they pretty much rolled over CBS4 and Local10 in the morning. Congrats to them.
But.
They, NBC6, compared their ratings only from 5-7am, at least that’s the way I see it from reading the story on their site. 7’s “Today in Florida” ends at 9am, 2 hours later. So 6 probably was number one untill 7am but overall for the morning 7’s whole morning newscast comes out on top by 1 point

NBC 6 #1 In Morning News
good for them!!!! keep up the good work all at nbc 6. about time 7 gets knocked out. as u can tell im bias towards 7. hahah
i dont get it…how can a station claim to have the “number 1 morning show” when, in fact, they don’t?? they’re distorting the facts to make it seem like they won something, when they did not.
but i guess that’s acceptable in a market where a station (wfor) claims to be “south florida’s most watched television station” although in reality they’re like number 3 or 4 (depending on if you count the spanish stations)
whatever…its all a cheap marketing ploy. just put on a good product and ignore the ratings game…people will watch if the watching’s good.
Explain insider, if they’re not # 1, who is and how do you know?
TVJ is probably #1 going head to head with WSVN from 5a to 7a
But overall from 5a to 9a WSVN has a 3.7 rating not a 2.9
At least that’s how I understand it to be.
