red states rule

The liberal media is tanking. Fox News is way way up. Beck have blown past the competition.
What was that about the death knell for conservatives?
RUSH WHO?
In Ratings Coverage, Number One Host Nearly Left Out
When talk radio stations turn in record ratings, how does it occur? Is there some kind of magical force behind the results?
While the state-run media seems unable to solve this grand mystery, your Radio Equalizer can offer a hint, utilizing these two initials: "R" and "L".
Still stumped?
That could be a sign your publication is beyond hope. But we already knew that, didn't we?
Yes, the release of Arbitron radio ratings for August 2009 created quite a stir in Los Angeles last week when it was revealed that AM news-talk giant KFI had moved into first place.
In Los Angeles, The Rush Limbaugh Show gained a full share point overall, from 5.9 to 6.9 to take first place with a weekly cume of 635,700 listeners. With men 35-64, the jump was from 4.7 to 5.6. In the 11am hour, Rush pulled in a mammoth 6.3.
In San Francisco, it was another big gain on KSFO, from 4.9 to 5.6 and a second-place ranking overall and 332,400 total listeners. In Nancy Pelosi's backyard, that's quite an achievement.
In New York City, Limbaugh's audience share grew from 4.7 to 5.4, ranking fourth overall and with 653,500 listeners.
Taking second overall in Chicago on WLS, the program moves from 5.0 to 5.3 to rank second with 319,700 tuning in. With men 35-64, it's a 5.7 to 6.0 gain.
Houston delivers huge numbers for Limbaugh, with a 7.2 to 7.4 share gain and 337,300 listeners. With men 35-64, it's a staggering 9.8, up from 9.4 in July.
In St Louis, it's an even bigger victory, with first place and a 10.8 share, up from 9.1 last month, logging 204,400 weekly listeners.
Once again, Rush is number one in Detroit with 7.1 share overall, up from 6.2, 245,600 is the head count.
In Seattle, Rush is number one in his time slot with a whopping 10.1 share on KTTH versus 9.3 in July. Audience is 159,500 in the Puget Sound Area.
Phoenix outdoes even Seattle's tally with an 11.0 share, up from 10.5, good for first place. Head count: 245,600.
San Diego provides another first place finish with a 7.7 share and 134,000 total audience.
