CBS' South Florida Shakeup

摘要

Growth has been slow for the 39 owned-and-operated outlets that make up the CBS station group, especially in the South Florida markets. But CBS execs are hopeful new managers and a fresh game plan will finally help the station group capitalize on the region's population boom. Revenue growth for the entire station group stands at a modest 5% since 2001. The stations took in $1.57 bil- lion in 2001, and the number peaked at $2.03 billion in election year 2004, before dropping back to $1.85 billion last year, according to BIA Financial Network.
