Dumb KPRC 2 rumor of the month

Out of all the dumb rumors that come to me about Houston television...this one wins. Chatter on a message board says Channel 2 KPRC is losing its 11am and 4pm newscasts soon. This rumor is making it to my blog comments too.

That would be really odd if the station just started killing news. So I want to clear this one up.

A KPRC rep told me the station is not canceling any newscasts.  In fact the station is, "ranked #2 in all key demos for every newscast in July."

The reality is that the station is adding news! So there you go. Dumb rumor squashed.
