For this viewer, KGW does an excellent job of reporting the news in the Portland market without seeming gimmicky. I enjoy the work of both the reporters and anchors. They do a very good job. I especially enjoy Randy Neves' coverage of City Hall -- he does a great job and I feel like I learn something from his reports. And I enjoy Kyle Iboshi’s no nonsense approach to reporting on issues of crime and punishment. Too, their sports reporting is better than their competitors, especially for a non sports fan like me. I also appreciate KGW's graphics and promotions. Compared to their competitors, they’re top flight in my book.

If I have any issues with KGW, it's with their weekend morning news. I could do without so many weather updates. But that's what sells I guess, especially on a weekend morning. On weekend mornings, I prefer KPTV (at least at the top and bottom of the hour).
