| How Weird! Stern Slips to 3rd
By DAVID HINCKLEY
Daily News Staff Writer
Howard Stern of WXRK slipped to third among New York's morning radio shows this summer, something that hadn't happened since before the first George Bush administration.
That was one of two surprises in the July-September Arbitron ratings released yesterday. In the overall ratings, WQHT (97.1 FM) — perhaps helped by the controversy over the suspension of morning show host Star — leapfrogged over perennial winner WLTW (106.7 FM) to finish No. 1.
The King of All Media is seeing a little rust on his scepter these days.
Stern trailed both WINS (1010 AM), which like other news stations saw a huge surge in listenership after Sept. 11, and WSKQ (97.9 FM, La Mega). La Mega's morning show, "El Vacilon de la Manana," with Luis Gonzalez and Moonshadow, had been nipping at Stern's heels for years and was ecstatic yesterday over finally finishing ahead of him in a ratings quarter.
Stern went to No. 1 in New York soon after he took over the morning show on WXRK (92.3 FM) in 1986. In the handful of ratings periods where he hasn't finished No. 1 since then, he has been beaten only by WINS in quarters when there was unusually heavy news-radio listenership. The most recent time that happened was last winter, when WINS finished ahead of him by one-tenth of a point.
But Stern's ratings generally have declined over the last year, though his remains the single biggest show in the city.
In the late '90s he averaged more than 8% of the total audience that was listening to the radio in an average quarter-hour. As recently as last summer, he was getting 7.8% of the audience. This summer he averaged 6.4%, which was actually up a tick from the 6.3% he averaged in the spring.
WINS averaged 7.4% of the audience this summer and WSKQ averaged 6.6%.
In the overall ratings, WQHT averaged 6.6% of the audience to 6% for WLTW. But WLTW maintained a substantial lead over everyone else among listeners 25 to 54, who are the most important for the stations because they're the ones advertiser pay the biggest money to reach.

| He stabbed Jackie the Jokeman in the back, so he cut off his nose to spite his face so to speak.
Thats why he is losing it and the mid life crisis of divorcing his wife to bang some bimbo instead of getting a prositute since thats all she wants from him is $$$$.
He is tired.

| I just hope this headline is big enough to stop him from claiming he's number one everywhere he goes. NY-#3, L.A.-#4, Chicago-#14.
He had the F-emmys on the other day, and one category was best bashing of the Howard Stern Show. How O&A didn't win this category is a complete joke. He's still acting like a pussy and it looks like he will until the end. Sad, sad, sad.

| Get YOUR facts straight, buddy. Not only is he not #1 25 to 54 in chicago OR L.A., but he doesn't make that distinction when he makes these claims. He only started using the 25, and that's 25 to 54 crutch in the cities he said he would be #1 overall and fell short. He always claimed he would beat the all news stations and powerhouses of every city. And he doesn't win 25 to 54 in every city either. It seemed like he would be #1 everywhere for a while there, but he's lost the edge, moreover, his SHOW has. Howard is still the single funniest motherfucker on the air, but his show isn't anymore. He can't do it himself.

Are you shitting me?
I have been a Howard fan since the day he came to WNBC...(shit box car had only an AM radio). BUT he is or was at his best on the scripted shit. He had Jackie writing for him. The thing that drew me to O&A was just how funny Anthony is. Off the top of his head he can riff with funny shit. Add to that the numerous impressions etc. I do like Howard, less so than in the old days. But he is no where near as funny as Anthony.

| Though the end is not near, one has to remember: O&A always win in the end.
This is the beginning of the end for Stern. He's divorced, without his head writer, relying on Artie Long (Norm McDonald's fat Soda Pop Johnny) for background humor and everyone on his show is either using him for the exposure or one of his devoted "whack pack."

| O&A are awesome but they were 4th in NY and sfter siging a big contract Mel will not be happy with that. he reason that the talk shows slipped this ratings period was 9/11/01 and now with anthrax everyone is listening to the news as they should in some cases. The spanish station topped stern because stern's listeners are smart enough to realize that they need to hear the news in a time like this(post 9/11). I'm sure it was a shock to see O&A in 4th but hey at a time like this ratings just do not seem that important. I'm kind of dissapointed O&A did not be more like Howard and try to raise some money for the victims. If they feel their fans are so loyal they should have tried to help by asking them to part with some cash for a good cause.

| Hey ste, you're simply stupid. I don't care who you work for, KSCA was the #1 morning show 25 to 54 in L.A. in the last book. If you want to take this further, list your 30 stations, and I'll prove you wrong again. Do REAL research or get another job, because you're obviously out of touch in your own business. It's right on the net, man. Not too hard to look up. You must be an intern or something. I'm sure Howard is #1 on thursday, when the church bells ring too. The MAIN point was that he doesn't say "25 to 54" He says, "I'm number one" Pretty slick, but pussy. He used to claim to beat EVERYONE. Now it's 25 to 54, then 25 to 54 males, what's next. In the past it was #1, PERIOD! He sidesteps this issue, just like he sidesteps the boys. Call him up and tell him to mention O&A. He won't. You'll stay on hold forever. I think they're big enough now for him to to put the "Why should I make them famous?" excuse to bed. Wake up dude, it's a pretty good feeling.
P.S. Ken, I think even your PEN knows that off the top of his head, Howard is WAY funnier than Anthony. Anthony's impressions are fantastic, but just talking, being funny, nobody beats Howard.

| Wow, Dick, you really got me, what the fuck? Do you spend your whole days on the Internet looking for ratings? (What an exciting life you have)
I don't give a fuck about the ratings, there's a war going on, asshole, get a life...
BTW, your a liar and a bad one at that!!!
As for calling The KOAM and asking him to talk about o&a: I won't do that, you know why? I wouldn't want you to cum all over your house or your van (wherever you live), get over it dude, Oh Howard, please talk about an afternoon radio show that doesn't even compete with you... Ha, I wonder why he don't talk about them, maybe because they have nothing to do with him ... get off my balls, faggot and stop dreaming about the day Howard talks about o&a, once again, get a life!!!

| Hey braniac, YOU'RE the one who told ME to get my facts straight, you little douchebag. And I read the ratings book once every three months.(takes a real long time) You sound pretty upset when you're proven wrong. Besides, YOU BROUGHT IT UP! You've also backed out of that whole discussion. Howard has taught you well. And what the hell do you know about my life? Off of one post you've come to the conclusion that I'm a total loser. How, I have no idea. What an idiot. What's wrong sweetheart, did I hurt your stupid widdle feewings, or do you always challenge someone's information and opinion in such a hostile way when they disagree with you? And EVERYONE knows Howard is being a pussy not mentioning them. He DOES worry, that's why he hits the dump button when people mention them. And I love dickheads like you who tell people to "get a life" even though they themselves engage in the same activities. And you should be happy that SOMEONE is on your balls, you dick with ears.
As for being a liar, I don't know what you're talking about, and I stopped dreaming about Howard mentioning them a long time ago because he's too much of a pussy these days to do it. Anyway, it would be the best thing for BOTH shows if he did, asswipe.
Now dazzle me with your high powered wit again, I don't want to slip off your balls, and just because there's a war doesn't mean we can't talk about anything else, Tool.

| Well looks like the usual drivel was proven wrong as usual and didn't like it.
I got a look at the ratings also, and Ste, Fandick is right. Now, get over it, move on. Stern may be No. 1, but that's only in your mind and Howard's. The ratings have proven that Stern is bullshitting you. Stern was No. 1 overall for quite a while, but now that Howard is not putting effort in his show, and is only going through the motions, is a sign that he is only doing this for himself.
Now, get over it, just because there are other shows to listen to, doesn't mean that Howard and his millions of brainwashed fans should cry like little babies, throw temper tantrums, and go beat people up because they don't like or listen to Hoawrd, ok? That's life, now grow up, get your thumb out of your mouth, and move on.
This is the O&A baord, and this board is under dictatoriship. Your opinion is shit just like the rest of ours.
SIDENOTE: Fandick, you have made me proud. Excellent job on thoroughly using the evidence.

| Thanks Sarge. It's weird that even though I still like a lot of things about Howard, the brainwashed fans still won't listen and open their eyes. I still give him props in the areas he deserves it, but if I say one bad thing about him, they pounce all over me. Even if what I say is true. If Howard was number one everywhere, It would make me happy, but false statements make me mad. Lately, besides his natural wit and interesting view on many subjects, HE makes me mad. Between the constant, endless commercials, his ducking of the boys, and him seemingly going through the motions, I've pretty much arrived at the point of listening once in a while whereas I used to set my alarm to listen. I tuned into O&A the other day for the first time in two weeks after my vacation, I was laughing within minutes, HARD! Nobody wants to laugh with Howard more than I do, their just getting fewer and farther between. It makes me sad, I feel sorry for him. To have such a career with so many victories and accomplishments, then just puss out and lose it, and lie like he used to accuse his competitors of? He HAS become Imus. Sad, sad, sad.

| Yeah, right. That's what all pussies say when they can't take being wrong. And he STILL doesn't get it. I don't get upset over ratings, I get upset over lies, brainwashing and denial. YOU called ME out on the ratings thing dude. I just gave you what was already there. Best advice for you man, think for yourself, and question HOWARD.
