KCNL is stunting... change at 5 PM

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad they brought alternative back and it looks like a better mix than before, but couldn't they drop the cookie cutter logo and lame slogan? I thought this station was going to be different?

They actually had good luck last time.

#3 P18-49 (English), #5 Overall
#1 P18-34 over all
(Fall '06 Arbitron, there final survey)

The luck is in the billing, and San Jose is a tough market at this point.

Correct Ratings means 0 it's the Billing that counts.

Or, could one say that crap sales people mean the death of a station that on teh programming side works (as far as ratings go because isnt that what programming is supposed to do..and for a parenthetical statement that was abusive)? This is why CC sucks. The sales spazzes run the co.

The problem is that ratings are not particularly important for a limited San Jose signal, as there is not a lot of transactional (numbers based metrics sales) business in San Jose... it's mostly direct business. Being in an embedded market, in other words, tends to suck.

San francisco is a $400 million plus radio market and growing, ranked 4th. San Jose is a $40 million market, and flat or declining... ranked 64th on billing although it is 34th in population.

When Clear Channel uses "Channel" it's usually for CHR. Weird.

Clear Channel's KTCL/Denver is Alternative and goes by "Channel 93-3."
