KFWB's turnaround!

I'm kidding. The former all-news station that's turned into a soap box for the conservative crowd (Laura Schlessinger, Laura Ingraham, Michael Smerconish, etc.) actually saw its October ratings drop, according to Arbitron, which is quite a feat considering that the month before it was in a tie for 34th place. Now it's in a tie for 38th place, with a 0.7 percent listener share. In August, right before they made the switch, the share was 1.0 percent. For some perspective, top-rated KIIS-FM had a 5.2 percent listener share. Good move on that format change.
