(Or do we just like watching “The Office”?) ;-)
Charlotte posted a press release from 12 News about their recent sweeps “dominance.” Congrats to them, they deserve it. They have a hardworking news team and the HDTV investment is clearly paying dividends. I think something else is paying dividends too.

12’s ratings win validates a certain format of news. The numbers are saying that quick(er) hit info-tainment works — really really well.
