In Reply to: Final Chicago PPM Ratings For 2008 Released (December) posted by chicagomedia.org on January 01, 2009 at 08:42:21:
Wierd. StationRatings.com shows WLIT with a 8.7, not a 6.7 like Radio & Records (what was posted here by CTR). Not sure which is true, but in any case, WLIT surely benefited from Christmas music again.:
