Air America ratings still in the toilet

By Aaron
The Blue State Conservatives

With Brian Maloney (aka the Radio Equalizer) a little busy trying to track down the latest on the Air America scandal, I though I would give an update on the dismal new radio ratings that came out this week.

In Washington, D.C., WWRC fell to a 0.3 rating and is in last place in the market.

In Boston, the two AAR stations take up the last two spots in the ratings chart with ratings of 0.4 and 0.2.

In New York, the flagship AAR station, WLIB has just a flat 1.0 rating and is in 24th place.

In Detroit, WDTW was a flat 0.4 which is tied for last in the city.

In Chicago, WCPT is stuck at 0.4 and just out of the cellar in the market.

In San Francisco, KQKE increased slightly to a tiny 1.4 in the most liberal city in the county and is in 23rd place. Still the station is down 0.5 from last summer. In San Jose, KQKE improved to 1.1, but is also down 1.5 last summer.

In Los Angeles, KLTK improved slighty to 0.9, but is in 30th place in the market.

In Monterey-Santa Cruz (CA) area, the AAR station didn't even make the ratings list.

In San Diego, KLSD, which was once considered one of the AAR stations that was succeeding, is flat at just a 1.7 rating. That is down nearly a full point from last Summer.

In Riverside-San Bernardino, CA (my hometown), KCAA doesn't even make the ratings list.

In Philadelphia, WHAT turned in a 0.5 rating which is up from its spring rating of 0.0, but is down from last summer's 0.8.

In Akron, Ohio, WARF is stuck at 0.4 -- good enough for last place -- and that is down from a 1.1 rating this winter.
