Nine’s A Current Affair is claiming the East Coast for 2012 having now won 21 weeks of the 40 week survey year.
Today Tonight has 6 weekly wins on the East Coast.
Executive Producer of A Current Affair, Grant Williams says “It’s been a powerhouse performance by the entire team at A Current Affair in 2012.
“We’re giving Australians news they can use, telling stories that are relevant to families everywhere and breaking big stories and major investigations along the way.
“This ratings result is great reward and speaks volumes for the hard work we’ve put in and our willingness to listen to what our audience wants from us.
“We thank our loyal viewers for supporting us in such huge number, every weeknight throughout the year. Our hard work won’t stop.
Nine’s focus continues to be on the East Coast where it has direct ownership of Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane stations, plus NBN’s Newcastle.
ACA has previously claimed the year in the Melbourne market.
But Today Tonight remains in front nationally.

People still watch this nonsense.It’s 2012 Find something Good Fresh and New and Put it on in it’s place.Let it die already.The Days Of Jana and Ray are long gone so move on.
You have seen One Current Affairs Show You have seen them all.9 would be better off putting on an old 80’s or 90’s Sitcom of some type at 6:30pm anyway and save themselves a load of dollars.
@jonno…I think they reference against the time zone differences.
@Secret Squirrel….I laughed. Hope the crumpets didn’t get soggy.
Just wondering why Victoria is included on the East Coast. If you look on the Australian map i would say Vic, SA is South Coast, WA is west Coast and QLD and NSW is east coast. Don’t mean to be picky but there is a South Coast and i live on it.

I just sprayed my tea over my monitor.
@Jennome…true imo…and yet the shows rate highly. I wonder if people tune in despite themselves, because they dislike the other choices, because a bit o goss is better than none..etc etc….? People who have posted here on the topic before have spoken about the lack of genuine investigation within these shows and yet why would the networks and producers change a jot when the ratings keep happening for them. On this issue I suspect the networks think the audience just whinges for nothing (because most do indeed still tune in).
Dunno how anyone can tell the difference between the two – a different host is all. They both spout the same garbage, recycling the same old stories year after year. Any pretence at real current affairs has long gone.
