| Post subject: | Plea to ESPN 1000 |
I know the suits look at this site and if they don't, we know Mac does. ESPN 1000 is an all-sports radio station that claims to be Chicago's sports leader. But, I have tuned in twice over the last 48 hours only to hear basketball games that I could care less about. I mean seriously, we are one week away from the Bears first Super Bowl appearence since I was missing my two front teeth and I am forced to stomach some crappy NBA game. I realize that there are contracts and commitments from Bristol. But, I would think that in a time like this, local coverage would take precident. So, whoever reads this, Pastor, Craig, Mickey Mouse, or Mac--lets make sure that the fans get to hear what they want. This is a chance for this station to take an even bigger lead on the Snore. But, the more national crap and pointless basketball games you air, the more Chicago sports fans will move to the score and what happens if they like what they hear? |

ESPN profits far more than the Score. ESPN has similar ratings, with 50% of the programming syndicated. |

Interesting conversation. Here's the income from advertisers in millions: 1. WGN-AM (720) ..................... $48.4 2. WBBM-AM (780) ..................... 45.9 3. WTMX-FM (101.9) ..................... 34.3 4. WGCI-FM (107.5) ...................... 28.6 5. WUSN-FM (99.5) ...................... 28.4 6. WLIT-FM (93.9) ......................... 24.5 7. WVAZ-FM (102.7) ...................... 23.8 8. WOJO-FM (105.1) ...................... 23.5 9. WXRT-FM (93.1) ......................... 22.9 10. WBBM-FM (96.3) ...................... 21.1 11. WSCR-AM (670) ....................... 20.9 12. WLS-AM (890) ......................... 20.1 13 WDRV-FM (97.1) ........................ 19.6 14 WLEY-FM (107.9) ...................... 18.3 15. WLUP-FM (97.9) ...................... 15.2 16. WKSC-FM (103.5)..................... 14.9 17. WNUA-FM (95.5) ..................... 14.8 18. WKQX-FM (101.1) ...................... 14.8 19. WJMK-FM (104.3) ..................... 13.1 20. WMVP-AM (1000) .................. 12.9 21. WCKG-FM (105.9) ..................... 11.3 North, Bernstein and Boers probably make more money than all of the talent at WMVP combined. Plus they have to pay the coin to Reinsdorf for the White Sox. |

Beef man - you are correct sir. The Score grosses more cash, but their net is very low due to high expenses, including the Sox rights. |
