Hart Kirch On KXNT

D

Destro

Guest
Casey Hendrickson announced that he would be doing the morning show with Kerri Kassem next week while Alan is on vacation. He said that Kevin Jannessen will fill in for his show on Tues. and Thur., and Hart Kirch will do the show on Wed and Fri.
 
Re: kassem steals topic from local newspaper..no credit given

Kassem did a segment on "pole dancing" as a mode of excercise....yet she didn't mention that this was a subject of an article in a weekly vegas paper...(Vegas Weekly?)..you would think she could give credit to the paper and the reporter for the topic idea.... at least in passing...

...and her singing must drive the ditto heads nuts....she would do better on a station that has programs geared to a younger demographic.....she doesn't fit with Limpbaugh and Dr. Laura

Jack-AM (fill-in host/mgr) said that he thought Kirsch was to liberal to get ratings....kdwn seems to be going back to informercials
 
KDWN going back to infomercials?

Maybe on the weekend they are.During the weekdays KDWN is a mix of car crash reports and syndicated talk. The only show that get's ratings on that station is Savage.
 
Hannity on KDWN??

Speaking of KDWN's crappy syndicated programming, it take a real dropping of the proverbial ball to not get Hannity on your station even after clearing THREE hours of Mark Levin, and seeing that your competitor on a slightly lesser signal clears him on a delay! Hannity has jumped ship from three or three good stations to mediocre ones in the last month or two!

Yep, we're happy with Jerry Doyle!! Nothing better!
 
Maybe it's beause it's tape delayed, but Hannity doesn't do too good in Las Vegas. KXNT is the #1 25-54 AM station in every daypart except afternoons. In PM drive Michael Savage on KDWN is the #1 AM, followed by sports KBAD, and then Hannity.

Then again Hannity would probably do better live. It would be an upgrade for KDWN compared to some of the shows they are currently running.

KDWN and KDOX seem very similar to me, they both run Fox news and a bunch of OK syndication. The only differences are that KDWN has local news 24/7 and a far superior signal.

#1 AM... against WHAT?!

Sure, Hannity may not do too well (as he doesn't in Seattle, Portland, Denver...) but it's the best KDWN will ever get from noon-3. Hmmm... Jerry Doyle or or Sean Hannity? Boy, even a 2 share suddenly looks great!
 
the limpbaugh, hannity, coast to coast station in PHX kfyi just got savage in the 7 to 10 pm slot...dumping local hosts and I believe Mark Levine...

...KFI is number 1 in LA english stations, and they have limpbaugh Laura and coast to coast with Handel in the morning and john and ken, Zeigler in the evening....

.the bottom line is kxnt needs better local hosts, look at reno, denver, sf, sacramento, phx, seattle, new mexico, etc etc ....the limbaugh, laura, coast to coast stations are doing twice as good as kxnt....the difference is local hosts,

KFYI got Savage after a year of rotating local hosts. They didn't drop Mark Levin (sp). He's on KKNT.

You're right that the stations in those other markets are more local than KXNT, but it local is just one piece of their success. There are plenty of Rush, Dr. Laura, etc. stations with only a local morning show. KNST/Tucson comes to mind. You can't say "gee, this station has a lot of local programming" and instantly make a correlation with "and they have good ratings".
 
Maybe kxnt could get a celebrity has-been to do a morning show...many live in Vegas
 
well she's not as famous as the "nearly famous" Barry Young in PHX on kfyi.....they should get an over the hill porn star maybe...

Hart Kirch reminds me of the crazy aunt in the basement, (that Ross Perot talked about ) but sucking on a lemon and running his nails up and down a blackboard as well.

Erin Russo might make a good talk show host (produces movies, runs for offices)
