WGN-AM News Talk Information 5.3 5.5 5.8 5.4


Let's debunk this crock of crap you keep posting... the station is 21st in
25-54. All the listeners are over 55, and sales are dropping seriously. This
is a station in serious trouble, as it has nothing to sell.

"News/Talk/Sports Tops Radio Formats, Interep Analysis Reveals"

"The latest share numbers place the News/Talk/Sports format at the
top, pulling in an average of 17 percent of listenership among persons
age 12-plus, based on Arbitron figures for total radio listening in 92
continuously measured metros. That share number is even higher than
levels seen last spring, when the war in Iraq began. According to
Interep, more stations than ever are programming News/Talk."
