Local TV Now

In this episode, we talk to the pollster behind a new study that finds that people still watch a lot of TV and still get news from TV regularly despite projections by some that TV news is in permanent decline. Plus, we talk about NBC’s local news ratings which are down double digits in major markets following Leno. And lots of talk about syndication including MyNetwork TV’s move to be a syndicator instead of a network.
