GLENDA ISN'T THE ONLY ONE

(h/t Radio Info)

Glenda Beck is off the air in NYC and Philly because of low ratings and the 3 Stooges (Fats, Hannity & Foamer Levin) may not be far behind!
Radio ratings fall for Limbaugh, Hannity

Right-wing talk radio may have worn out its welcome, at least for now. The just-out April Arbitron report shows Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity—the biggest conservative talkers in New York—stuck in a ratings slump that started back in November, right after the 2010 midterm elections.

Top-rated Mr. Limbaugh has taken the biggest fall. He had a 3.0 share of listeners for his WABC-AM midday slot—a 33% slide from October and from last April. Mr. Hannity’s afternoon show was down 28% from its fall peak, as was fellow conservative Mark Levin’s evening program.

Numbers for the station’s more centrist personalities—Don Imus in the morning and John Batchelor at night—were both up from a year earlier.
