So KRTH fell from first to second and their audience share dropped from 5.5 to 4.7. Would I be correct in assuming that listeners are getting tired of hearing September, I Melt With You, Take On Me, Hotel California, Sweet Dreams and Don't Stop Believin' every four hours?

Or, perhaps, we had a totally disruptive even that fell in the July book: World Cup. While not on everyone's radar, in as international a market as LA, it totally changed radio usage for 4 weeks.
 
Wow KSWD, is having its best showing ever 3.2 overall, that's the highest I have ever seen the station get ratings wise, so what did KSWD, do to make itself different than KLOS, or jack fm?

That's easy. Of the three stations, they insult their listeners the least.
 
KTWV, meanwhile slipped down to 2.3, not doing to good, ; time maybe to switch to Hot AC, to compete against KBIG?
 
^ I would. It would be a great selling partner with Amp and given how much the billing for My has exploded, they could use some competition. Take the Fresh route like they do in NY and DC.
 
btw among the comedy-formatted stations dropping the format with the end of the dist of 24/7 comedy radio, there's
KFNY Riverside. The miniscule ratings can be seen on that page even though it says "Spanish variety". It changed to news-talk as "IE 1440" (Inland Empire). A few listeners are venting about the change on facebook, saying they liked the comedy instead of all the talk shows out there (especially right wing ones). So far no real change to the KFNY facebook and while it does have a new logo, a mention of news-talk format, and some headlines, there's no info (yet) on schedule.

Sam Sorbo is part of the Talk Radio Network lineup. The show is an encore run, not live. Sean Hannity follows from Noon-3. Looks like 1440 is going with a Premiere/TRN hybrid schedule.
 
raccoonradio mentioned comedy stations. Who here remembers the old KGOE-850 in Thousand Oaks? From 1984 to 1992 the station aired a comedy format as KMDY. I was so happy the time they played Bill Cosby's hilarious routine about going to the dentist. "Thrrr iss smmmok." "I can't understand you." "Thrrr iss smmmok commng frm out of my mouf!" Sirius XM has several comedy channels but I'm guessing that such channels don't succeed on AM/FM because they require too much attention from the listeners and most of us are much too busy to sit and give our undivided attention to a radio station.
