    Voice tracking has done more to kill the radio star than video. Another penny wise, but pound foolish move.

    92.9 sounds worse than ever (voice guy and morning show) and is the biggest, underperforming station in Tucson. 90,000 watts wasted.

    Jim Parisi recently said he opposes SB1070 during his show, and the backlash from callers and online was significant. The odds of his ratings going down have to be close to 100%.

    I would much rather listen to the "Justice" guy at 104-1 the Truth than the guy CC transported in from Texas.... another less than stellar move from the "brains" at CC Tucson... sooner or later they(CC), will take a ratings hit.... and I am lead to believe there will be no tears shed. They have ruined too many stations and personalities. "Nuff said!!!


    This is what I have been thinking too. That audience must feel shell shock going from Jim to Andy to this nut job. I think they are in for the ratings drop of their lives if this guy is connecting with the audience the way I suspect he is. He even makes fun of the callers! (at least he did when I was too distracted to reach for the remote) Nuff said indeed...

    "Clear Channel wants to make significant improvements in two ratings areas: KWMT 92.9 FM, which has a loyal but less-than-desired following, and news-talker KNST AM 790"

    Maybe they should start with Chris Patyk, the Program Director for both stations? Zlaket's decision to fire Blake Rogers and Josh Leng last year to save on payroll doesn't seem to be working out so well. He forgot about one thing: The listeners!

    I guess it's true what they say, what goes around, comes around.

    Without Dr. Laura, KJLL will take a major hit in ratings. She has consistently been their highest rated program. Her departure could easily result in KJLL posting goose eggs for share ratings in the near future. The station's current lineup was built around her show as it was the only one delivering a significant audience, consistently. I wish every independently owned and operated radio station the best, but the truth is: In 2011, KJLL will be a much harder sell.
