KGW is still clearly the news leader in Portland, although 11pm has become a tighter contest with everyone continuing to lose viewers. KOIN has stopped it's bleeding, gaining in every newscast except 11pm. The abysmal performance of KGW's 10pm show hasn't changed. I haven't looked at the noon show ratings for several years. Do any of them make money with such low ratings?
