Somerville's worst fear didn't come true

“My worst fear was that the numbers would go down. I was a little afraid of the unknown,” KTVU anchor Frank Somerville tells Chuck Barney of the Contra Costa Times.

Barney mentions the ratings in a profile of Somerville that contains a lot of personal details — like the fact that Somerville, 51, has been a vegetarian since age 12, that he and his family are moving into the home of former Warriors player Adonal Foyle, and that his wife once tutored him on his on-air presentation.
