Okay . . .
Some of you d-bags were arguing that afternoon drive time at KMBZ actually earns great ratings. Our experience with that contention is that some of the most successful people typically find a way to rig the numbers.
No, it's not a conspiracy just a fact of life that sooner or later EVERYTHING can be rigged.
History provides us a lesson and it's not even sooooooo controversial to argue that JFK's dad rigged the 1960 American presidential election by way of Illinois and the Chicago mob . . . Something that MIGHT have cost the Prez his life down the road or at least makes a sexier story than the military industrial complex sending a very clear message to the Executive Branch that still resonates.
But I digress . . .
Not so long ago a local conservative dude figured out how to push his stats over the top . . . Now he's sitting in a corner office of a think tank and far away from the media grind.
People who work in media know a lot better than to put TOO MUCH faith in the numbers.
Another quick story . . .
There was nearly defunct KC blog which also MISTAKENLY believed that radio numbers offered a secret key to success . . . Sadly, insider data didn't attract any interest, advertisers or readers beyond the author's immediate social circle.
And so . . .
We respect ratings but maybe not as much as social media embarrassment.
Accordingly . . .
Today we wish KMBZ talker Dana Wright a speedy recovery from injury sustained by her own hand:
"I concussed myself today. With my own @CallawayGolf ball. You’re welcome."
