First and foremost, it probably goes without saying that today’s big winners are 2GB and WSFM with Kyle & Jackie O still pulling listeners to KIIS at breakfast.
On the question of 2DayFM, you really have to wonder if the falls this survey (losing 5% of people aged 18-24 would probably be most concerning) are a blip or whether the station’s current format has peaked. Something to keep an eye on over coming surveys.
2CH will be pleased that Trevor Sinclair & Indira Naidoo are going OK at breakfast - up 0.5% in a survey which they were on air for all but Gareth McCray’s final week.
As for Macquarie Sports Radio…oh boy. I was kind of expecting their numbers to be bad but to have less than 1% of the audience with more Sydney listeners tuning into Sky Sports Radio?! Absolutely pathetic!
Not only is it incredibly sad that a frequency that was once Sydney’s #1 radio station (Now there’s a very good question: What were 2UE’s ratings in Survey #4 1998?) is getting less listeners than the racing channel, serious questions must already be asked about the future of Macquarie Sports Radio? Maybe if there was a ratings boost in Sydney during the transitional period you could give MSR a bit more time to bed in but with 0.8% for the 1st full survey, surely this format won’t make it until the end of the year?
