Presented without further comment ...


Oh, wait...here's a comment from Tom Taylor:

KTRS, St. Louis says “We were a successful talk station before we had the Cardinals”–

And they will be after the team takes its games back to previous play-by-play home KMOX (1120), says KTRS GM Tim Dorsey. He knows the landscape very well (he spent 17 years at KMOX), and he tells TRI “we had a great run with the Cardinals and enjoyed every minute of it.” One of the interesting facets of the new KMOX contract is that KTRS (550) is still 50% owned by the Cardinals. The team took that position over five years ago, when former Jacor topper Bobby Lawrence got involved.

I'm sorry, but I've followed the KTRSMess since the beginning (even worked with them for almost six years) and I find it difficult to break out a single Arbitron rating period during which KTRS could have been considered a successful talk station.  Dorsey's delusional.
