Arbitron vs. on-air notation

I've removed the Arbitron notation for the Sirius channels as being irrelevant. The XS notation for Sirius channels simply isn't used except for Arbitron logging; better to identify the channels according to standard on-air practice. Haikupoet 01:10, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

Table Format

I'm altering the format to a table too see which stationsare missing information. As I go along, I'm updating the infoboxes at each station. -----Adimovk5 17:53, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Low rated, -- So How do they exist?

The article admits early on what most everyone knows; sports-talk is "A wide spread, but low rated genre,[1]...."

At first glance this appears to be a contradiction of the Market. Yet this foundational and existential topic is not raised. Some say that they are so popular with radio owners because they have built-in sponsorship. Whatever the reason, the article deserves an explanation.

Tautology

Previously the opening sentence in this article had included the line "A widespread programming genre that has a lower audience appeal than formats which attract wider audiences". I get what the previous author was getting at, but unfortunately the way this is phrased is tautological, and is true about any genre (or anything) at all. I've changed the sentence to both simplify it and (hopefully) preserve the intent of the earlier author to ""A widespread programming genre that has a narrow audience appeal". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.162.176.250 (talk) 18:41, 8 May 2015 (UTC)
