5AM - May '07 (May '06):
KPTV - 2.3 (1.9)
KGW - 1.3 (1.7)
Summary: KPTV is up, KGW is down from a year ago
6AM - May '07 (May '06):
KPTV - 4.4 (4.5)
KGW - 4.1 (4.1)
Summary: both stations are the same as a year ago
Your statement that KGW is up at 6am and KPTV down/flat is not true. The truth is that both stations are nearly the same as a year ago (at 6am). And KGW certainly did not get killed by KPTV last May either. It was neck and neck until the last week, when KPTV got a big boost from the Idol finale. And even after that, KPTV only won with a 4.5 to to KGW's 4.1.
So... you tell me. Based on the above, is Drew's move to KGW having any real impact? I say no.
