Ratings...

I know, I know....rating are all made up and don't matter...so I guess liberals might not want to read this.

NYC, JAN-MAR, 2006
RADIO AUDIENCE AVG QTR HOUR12+ LISTENERS
LIMBAUGH 141,700
HANNITY 118,200
GAMBLING 108,400
CURTIS/KUBY 101,500
IMUS 94,100
LEVIN 80,700
JOY BROWNE 69,500
O'REILLY 64,200
SAVAGE 62,900
BATCHELOR 43,300
INGRAHAM 37,500
FRANKEN 35,600
RANDI RHODES 27,900
LIONEL 27,100

To anyone who wants to be honest.....
Why do the conservative shows get the very, very high ratings, liberal shows....IN A VERY LIBERAL TOWN....get very, very low ratings???

What kind of excuses can we give....

How many of these shows are streamed over the Internet?

don't know...has nothing to do with these ratings

Jim said...

Correctamundo! I listen to Franken over the Internet as do many thousands of listeners, and these ratings don't capture that audience. How many listen to Limbaugh, Hannity, or O'Reilly over the Internet?

The Game said...

I'm going to get many, many more listen to rush and sean than franken over the internet...prove me wrong...

it probably mimicks the air wave ratings

Jim said...

I have to prove you wrong when you make assertions without facts? I don't think so. I bet that Air America's combined Internet listeners outnumber Limbaugh, Hannity, O'Reilly, Ingraham by 3 to 1.

Prove me wrong!

Before long, Air Anti-America will be a distant memory, so this discussion is somewhat pointless.

Time will tell, won't it.

Can't find the ratings for the internet..arbitron got rid of that..

but since conservative talk radio destroys liberal radio EVEN in liberal cities, you are the one who needs to prove otherwise...why would more people listen to ONE conservative talk show host than ALL of AA but someone those same liberals have more listening on the internet...

oh, I know, you are so smart, liberals are so much better they don't need radio, they go to the internet where all the smart people go, right?

Game, you're guilty of it again. You brought it up, you back it up, ok?

Could be because since Air America is only about a year and a half old, they are only on about 60 radio stations as opposed to Rush who has been around for years and who is on, what, over 600 stations? I have a hard time picking up a station. So the internet is a good alternative.

Does Arbitron do satellite?
