WFTV very happy with Casey Anthony ratings

Roger Simmons, June 5, 2011

The Orlando TV ratings for the Casey Anthony trial continue to be amazing. And WFTV-Channel 9 News Director Bob Jordan is very pleased with what he’s seeing.

Here are some recent tweets from his always entertaining and informative Twitter account:

  • Saturday ‘Casey on Trial’ draws a combined (WFTV+WOLF+CFN13) 41 share at 11:00 am. WFTV’s 7PM Casey special wins TP. Interest unabated.
  • 4PM Friday: ‘Casey on Trial’ on WFTV draws a 16-share. News on WESH, a 1-share.
  • ‘French Open’ on WESH attracts NO MEASURABLE audience (A25-54) against ‘Casey on Trial’ coverage on WFTV, et al.
  • WFTV wins 20 of 29 qtr hrs of ‘Casey On Trial’ coverage Friday. Kudos to our trial team, headed up by EP Amy Coulter.
