Re: PD at KSFO thinks all conservsative radio is dying

Jack Swanson PD at KGO and conservative KSFO in San Francisco told Gene Burns --long time talk host---that he thought conservative talk was dead or dying...he started all conservative talk format at ksfo in 1996....one of the first station to brand itself as such

KPTK Seattle up 22% since fall book, and up 86% since last winter's book. Other talk stations above them in the ratings were flat on a year over year basis.

WROC-AM Rochester keeps bouncing around. They did okay last fall and then dropped in the winter. Randi's show has been made toast by silly ballgames airing quite often evenings. I'm looking forward to see what Stephanie Miller's addition did for their weekday morning ratings. They have to be better than Springer's old show.WROC is no major prize winner, but the GM of the local Entercom station group said he couldn't be happier with the station's performance, so I guess it's going to stay a hybrid AAR/Jones/WOR libtalk outlet.
