Sorry folks, wrong again about KPTV. The night before the draft, the LEAD on the 10 O'Clock News was about Oden being selected number one(ESPN.com broke the story)KPTV had the Blazers denial, etc. KGW's 10 never mentioned it. Instead, they followed KPTV's lead and finally mentioned it in their 11, and so did KATU.
KPTV didn't feel it necessary to send their NEWS anchor across the country to cover a sports story. KPTV was at the Rose Garden, and gave the draft plenty of coverage. By 10 pm, it was an A block live shot/package, just not the lead. I don't see anything wrong with that. KPTV doesn't follow the pack, and their numbers prove people appreciate it. The 10 O'Clock was number one late night by a HUGE margin. Even their 11 tied KGW's for first place in that time slot. So, maybe KPTV is doing something right?
