If you haven't noticed, it's May sweeps -- which means the sex quotient and the cheesiness factor is on high at the local TV news operations.
Interestingly, sweeps are actually meaningless now in Los Angeles, because the local stations have started getting detailed demographic information every day of the year from Nielsen. (Until a year or so ago, the stations had to rely on sweeps months to get that info. Not anymore.)
I guess old habits die hard. Witness KNBC/Channel 4, which is, yes, trotting out sick puppies to grab your attention. Low blow, NBC4! Low blow.
