ABC is always a little quick - but KRHD is a full 30 secs... at least

I sent some emails to their 'contact us' - kinda quiet so far.

The thought is if they can grab your attention right away coming out of the previous show you wont change the channel to another news station. It also means that they are sacrificing a higher priced ad spot to do this.

Back in the day when Ted Turner ran his network he would start programming at 55 after the hour, so your wouldn't leave.

Sounds like foxNews prime-time as gone one better..

It doesnt work for me, I just catch the news highlights from them in order of their feed as they go thru their intros.
