And philly where I work is extremely well diversified. Clear Channel and Viacom only make up 12% of the radio market.

I just checked out San Antonio - home of Clear Channel, and they actually control only 12.5% of the market, less then DC (fancy that).

Cox cable owns 15.58% and Univision another 12.5%.

As for my city Austin is well diversed (Damn hippies!):

Clear Channel owns 15.4% (6 stations)
Viacom at 10.26% (4 stations)

and my university at thrid;
The University of Texas at Austin - 5.13% (2 stations)

Educational is - 20.51% (8 stations)
Independent/Other - 38.5% (15 stations)

San Jose, CA

code:
viacom              8  10.96%
clear channel       6   8.22%
univision           2   2.74%
disney              3   4.11%
educational        17  23.29%
other/independent  19  26.03%

Clear Channel owns the 3 most popular music stations, two of which people always argue which is better. my answer to them is always... does it matter, both are owned by clear channel, STFU Disney owns the top two news/talk stations, one of them has been #1 for the past 25 years in its market, something howard stern, oreilly, michael "savage" weiner or any station has ever done

Greater Media, Inc. - 6 stations - 5.41% share
Viacom - 6 stations - 5.41%
Clear Channel - 5 stations - 4.5%
Educational - 35 stations - 31.53%
Other/Independent - 41 statins - 36&

this is from Brooklyn, NY.

very curious stats, considering the homogeneity of radio playlists and popular thought among the cognoscenti; a reminder that statistics themselves reveal nothing absent of context.

Ultimately demand dictates supply in this case.

lol - i disagree strongly that demand dictates supply in almost any case, but we can save that lengthy argument for another day and another thread.

WOW! This is surprising how diverse the radio ownership is in Chicago:



There are a lot of stations here though....109.

Holy SHIT! You sure they aren't off by a factor of 10? I knew Kerry was rich (100 mil or so) but $800 million? Wow.
