Just Wondering....

Check out this picture from KLBK (Lubbock) as the folks in the newsroom watch the NCAA finals.

If you look closer you can see the mission statement for the Nexstar station on the wall. This poster hangs at other Nexstar stations as well.

Many TV stations have long given up trying to do newscasts for everyone and gear their news to women 25-54 only.

I know that’s what the consultants tell them, but why focus your news to such a small segment of viewers?

Also, if you want the newscast to engage women 25-54, then why does Nexstar have so many old white guys as their News Directors?

Just asking…
