Poynter's Tompkins countered that familiarity is still a strong factor in viewer loyalty.

But for now, don't fret if you don't know if you're watching 50 or 62. The newscasts will be cross-promoted on both stations. And on nights when a sporting event mangles the schedule, the same newscast will be on both stations at the same time. The witching hour for that, Bell says, is 10:25 p.m. Whenever an event pushes the start of Channel 50's 10 p.m.

newscast past then, the 50 newscast will collapse into the 35 minutes or less that's left, then segue into the 62 newscast during a commercial break on Channel 50. While Channel 50 viewers see a commercial, 62 viewers will see an intro to the 11 p.m. news and then the news will be simulcast with only the screen graphic ID different. The 11 p.m. sitcom Prince of on Channel 50 would be preempted on those nights.

The payoff may take a while Let's go the bank for a moment. Dunlop said Channel 62 "actually probably made more money by not being in the news business. The news business is a very expensive proposition, and they carved themselves out a niche in the beginning with some of these court and game shows that have worked very well for them." But the syndicated shows Channel 62 has relied on to fill normal news hours have surged in cost, making news effectively cheaper. But the real payoff for tonight's start won't come until next year, with the 2002 elections, a bonanza for local TV stations with newscasts. "There's no doubt about it," says Dunlop.

"Without news, WWJ in 2000 did $10 million in political revenue. What would they have done with news? Another $6 million or $7 million." The ratings goal? "If we could maintain what 'Seinfeld' was doing at 11 p.m with the newscast we'd be very happy," says Dunlop. "That's about a 4 rating." reruns will shift to Channel 2 at 7:30 p.m. weeknights.) Anchor Rich Fisher concurs with a modest startup goal: "Start up and in May (the next sweep ratings period) be a major player after one book? Come on we're all working hard to achieve goals, but to have a major impact right off the bat? It's going to take some time." TCM Tiffany's" 1989424 guerrillas in World War II China. Randolph Scott.

(News viewers are mostly older females.) Says Bell: "News is a utility. If you're not there at 10 o'clock, it will impact you." IOn Channel 62, Dunlop says, the CBS prime-time audience is older, more female and less disposed to hit the channel clicker at the flicker of a news teaser. And th Channel 62 news will dependably start at 11 p.m. most every night, tonight excepted. He hopes the CBS viewers will remain faithful, and that some of the 40 percent of local viewers now watching news on Channel 4 or Channel 7 at 11 will give Channel 62 a try.

'Straight to the Point' On branding how the newscast is delivered and promoted during the broadcast day Bell says Channel 62's "Straight to the Point" slogan will be "very apparent to viewers. We'll offer a product that won't waste their time, making the newscast worth staying up for." Dunlop conceded content won't "differ terribly from that on Channel 50's newscast." Bell says research showed that many viewers think "the 11 p.m. news wastes their time. They are tired of getting teased with stories that don't deliver. They wonder 'Why am I staying up for The goal is to deliver a product that is worth their time." And he's thrilled start day has arrived.

"The important thing is that we're starting." Al Tompkins, the broadcast faculty member for Florida's prestigious Poynter Institute for Media Studies, notes the general "model for proven success" on such efforts elsewhere is to provide more time for local news. But he cautioned that there is a difference between "no-nonsense news versus stories that don't waste your time," emphasizing relevance isn't always related to story length. Bell says he's getting a handful of new staffers to handle the new broadcast. However, both he and Dunlop cautioned against expansion talk as in a 5 or 6 p.m. newscast soon on Channel 62.

"It would be suicide," says Dunlop. "CBS asked us to look at 5 or 6. I'd rather go up against two newscasts at first than three." But both Bell and Dunlop hint that a revamped MTV-style Channel 50 newscast aimed at younger might be the next logical step if the current crew catches on at Channel 62. Bell also touted research that shows viewer "don't have favor The Secrets of Forensic Junkyard Wars "Land Yachts" Teams build and i The Ultimate Ten "Great Escapes" Some of the TLC Police, Camera, Action!
