Ch. 2 is starting to surge in ratings for its` 10PM broadcast, helped by Jay Leno`s horrible lead-in numbers for Ch. 5`s 10PM news. If you`re finally starting to pull your head above water, isn`t it rather curious to completely remove your station from Primary Night election coverage? While every other local news operation in town stayed with the election well past midnight, Channel 2 signed off at 10:35 and segued straight into Letterman and Ferguson.
I guess that is great counter-programming, but it has to hurt if you`re part of the Channel 2 news team and you`re not contributing to one of the biggest news stories of 2010?
