It is very easy for a station ownership group to look good when the cash is rolling in and the times are good. But, when times turn tough that is when you see the real character of a company.

Two major stories have been impacting us. The COVID-19 Pandemic hit back in late February. And for the past month, you have had civil unrest in the wake of the killing of George Floyd.

So, during these tough times, which station groups have done it right and who went south?

Today starting in the next hour and each hour after that, FTVLive will count down the 5 Best station groups during these tough times and the 5 Worst.

Check back, stay tuned, and see if your group made either list? Also, it might be a good list to refer back to when you are looking to change jobs or companies.

The countdown starts at 7 AM.
