SATURDAY'S "48 HOURS" ENCORE DOUBLE FEATURE WAS #1 IN VIEWERS AND HOUSEHOLDS AT 9:00 PM AND 10:00 PM

48 HOURS: "DIRTY LITTLE SECRETS" WAS THE NIGHT'S TOP PROGRAM IN BOTH VIEWERS AND HOUSEHOLDS.

Saturday's 48 HOURS double feature, with two broadcasts focusing on the death of a beloved school teacher and the dark side of her Baptist preacher husband, was #1 with viewers and households at 9:00 PM and #1 at 10:00 PM with adults 25-54 - the demographic that matters most to those who advertise in news - viewers and households, according to Nielsen live plus same day ratings for May 25, 2013.

48 HOURS: "The Preacher's Wife" (R) (9:00 PM) was first in viewers (4.11m) and households (2.9/06). Compared to the same night last year (CRIMETIME SATURDAY "NYC 22"), 48 HOURS 9PM was up +43% in adults 25-54, up +20% in adults 18-49 and up +38% in households.

Saturday's broadcasts featured Erin Moriarty and the 48 HOURS' team's two reports on the death of Kari Baker, a teacher and the wife of Baptist preacher, Matt Baker. Initially ruled a suicide, the investigation into Kari Baker's death uncovered a troubled marriage and Matt Baker's girlfriend, who told all to a jury.

Linda Martin and Suzanne Allen are the update producers. Judy Tygard is the senior producer. Susan Zirinsky is the senior executive producer.
