I agree and don't count me on the Mike North bandwagon either. A lot of people are ripping CBS 2 for this move, but let's be honest: Was anyone watching their morning news anyway? Does anyone you know even watch the CBS network's morning news program after the local one? We spend so much time armchair pd'ing these low-performing stations and naming what they should do (usually it involves bringing back people from 10-30 years ago)... how about supporting a station who tries something different and really 'reaches for it'? Either this is going to be a genius move, get all the males and more over to 2 in the morning, or after awhile they'll realize it was an interesting concept that just didn't work out.
: Good for CBS 2...this is definitely going to separate them from the competition. And good for Mike North...moving from cable where people thought he was done to broadcast...bet there are alot of surprised people right now.
