Holiday 2011 PPM: CHR and Rhythmic National Recaps
CHR shares were particularly vulnerable during the Holiday book. Despite losing a full share, WPRO Providence maintains the format’s highest share for the 11th consecutive survey. Only WKST Pittsburgh showed an increase (of 0.4 share) among the top ten, and only three CHRs across the entire nation managed a higher increase than that (each of 0.5 share) during the Holiday book.
