Seacrest…out?
From the Hear 2.0 blog:
Seacrest…out?
So Ryan Seacrest has reportedly been coached to talk less between the songs on KIIS FM.
In a competitive market, the PPM ratings decline when the mic opens, or so the general consensus (with plenty of exceptions) says.
Ryan is supposedly miffed, and who can blame him? There are, after all, lots of companies that pay him lots of bucks to say stuff in front of an open mic. Putting a lid on it is the last thing they want.

I hadn’t heard his show and know nothing about PPM so I probably shouldn’t say anything. And I get tired of these “morning zoos” that just talk on for hours and say nothing. But I feel the only way we, local radio, can beat SirriusXM (other than being free) is connect with the listeners. Maybe he’s not saying the right stuff… or the honeymoon is over?
