Since They Are Based Here.......

SFGate.com, the online service of the San Francisco Chronicle, has a blog called "The Poop - The Chronicle Baby Blog".....Tuesday, during their "Off Topic Tuesday" feature, they took a look at "The Best And Worst Morning Radio DJs" in the Bay Area. Both music hosts & news/talkers were briefly reviewed.

Armstrong & Getty's KNEW simulcast rated zero mentions in the article, but got three or four positive comments ...and a slap or two.....out of over 100 reader posts. I find them boring and predictable, but others don't, and the recent book with strong numbers for KSTE may prove me wrong {although I recall those numbers have been way up then settle back around 8th fairly regularly}...but KNEW still lingers around 21st overall in The SFBA.

Opinions???
 
Man...A & G are just awful...they do NO show prep whatsoever...and boy does it show. I don't know why Sacramento's so in love with them...buy the Bay Area sure isn't!
 
A&G's show is also 'simulcast' on Santa Rosa's KFTY TV-50, which, BTW, has lost a large cable audience
on Bombast Kable (aka Comcast Cable) when that system simply removed Cable 10 from their system
(in Napa, for example, when you use the channel-scan on remote, it skips from Channel 9 to Channel 11!)....

Yup, the A&G ratings on KNEW are weak...I conclude it's just cheap filler for AM 910...

I am curious how the A&G TV ratings compare to the radio ratings, wherever it's broadcast on TV...
