Stern Ratings Up

Stern Ratings Up -- According to an article in my local paper, after slipping to #2 in New York last fall, behind a Spanish-language copygato, Howard Stern is back on top in Big Apple ratings...

The King of All Media has woven rants against the FCC and the Bush administration with his usual raunch and roll, and listeners have responded positively. With listeners 25-54 [I'm still in that group, but just barely.], Stern posted a 10 share, up from 7.9 in the fall.

The share represents a percentage of the 15.3 million available listeners in the New York metro area...

You can count me in as one of those.
