All-News Scoreboard for Large Markets - Nov. 2013

It was a good month for the established All-News stations. KCBS and WTOP were both at #1, WBBM #2 and KYW, which saw a ratings drop last month, zoomed back up to #3. KNX was just missed being in the top 10 in Los Angeles. But WINS was uncharacteristically low. Let's see next month if that was just a blip.

The newer All-News stations in Houston, Atlanta and Washington continue to struggle. WYAY in Atlanta is trying a news-driven Talk show in early afternoons to bring up their midday numbers. Unfortunately WYAY also does something no All-News station should ever do...run infomercials on weekends. Even at 5am on a Sunday, listeners expect All-News when they tune in an All-News station.


1. New York...WCBS #8 ... WINS #12
2. LA...KNX #11
3. Chicago...WBBM/WCFS(FM) #2
4. San Francisco...KCBS/KFRC(FM) #1 ... KGO* #14
5. Dallas...KRLD* #17 tie
6. Houston...KROI(FM)^ #22 tie
7. Washington...WTOP(FM) #1 ... WNEW-FM^ #23
8. Philadelphia...KYW #3 tie
9. Atlanta...WYAY(FM)*^ #19
10. Boston...WBZ* #6
(11. Detroit...WWJ #3)
(13. Seattle...KOMO-AM-FM #18 tie)
(25. Pittsburgh...KQV* does not subscribe)

* part-time All-News station
^ station signed on last year

All stations are owned by CBS except KGO and WYAY (Cumulus), KROI (Radio One), WTOP (Hubbard), KOMO (Sinclair) and KQV (Calvary).
