Chicago Radio Ratings

From Tom Taylor's NOW column...

Chicago shows you can lose nearly a share total-week – and still win. That’s if you’re iHeart’s urban AC “V103” WVAZ (6.1-6.7-5.9). It wins every individual daypart except for third-place Steve Harvey in mornings. Clinging to second place overall is Hubbard’s hot AC “Mix” WTMX (4.6-4.7-5.0). Mix is #1 mornings with the Kathy-less “Eric & Kathy.” Third is CBS Radio’s news WBBM/WCFS (4.7-4.4-4.7, and second place mornings), followed by the best topline since October 2014 for “US99.” That’s CBS Radio’s country WUSN (3.4-4.1-4.2). It’s just ahead of iHeart’s top 40 “Kiss” WKSC (3.8-3.8-4.1). How did iHeart’s country “Big” WEBG perform? Down 2.1-2.8-2.2, tied for 22nd place. Overall, Hubbard’s classic hits “Drive” WDRV ranks #6 (3.9-4.2-4.0), and its Sherman & Tingle morning show ties for second. Lurking behind the Drive is CBS Radio’s sports “Score” WSCR (3.8-3.7-3.9). The Score runs second at night with Cubs baseball. The Windy City’s top cume station is CHR Kiss at just over two million.
