"According to Nielsen Audio Metro data, Savage at least doubled Hannity’s average quarter-hour (AQH) rating in two major markets (New York and Dallas) and at least tripled his rating in Chicago and Savage’s hometown of San Francisco:"

I thought he retired and the Pizza giant toook his place.
And at night they lower the power on the signal to next to nothing.
Savage is more entertaining, even when he’s being stupid. Hannity is probably a nice guy but I can’t listen to him for long as he repeats the same stuff.
Now I change the station after Rush ends because Savage is a self-centered, boring, condescending, blowhard.
I liked Savage but he is the only talk radio personality on the right that makes me miss Hannity. They shifted him from the local blowtorch to one station above the state police traffic alert.
I just turn it off after Rush anyways, nothing else needs to be said.
Me either, but the other night he actually had two segments that were not GOP talking points and MH-390... and it was good. Then he went back to the same old, same old...
He better change- has the same stupid guests on Radio and Cable... Tired of Juan, tired of Beckel, Coulter is damaged goods... asks the same questions over and over, just different guest.... surprised how lazy in originality Hannity is..
I can’t stand either one of them, but at least Hannity has a pleasant enough voice for radio, something Savage does not.
As far as Weiner goes, he is unreliable as a conservative, and often sides with liberals. He appeals to people who get wood from listening to a tough sounding New Yorker. Fact is, Weiner is a fratricidal purse-swinging bed-wetter.
It’s a sign of weakness.
I figured out Weiner, aka Savage in less than a week. Here is a guy with a fake name, constantly name calling conservatives in an attempt to poach listeners.
Weiner is his real name. “Savage” is a name that makes him talk tough.
I still listen to Savage, but frankly I find him a disgusting little man with with an inferiority complex. He spends most of his time now trashing his competitors and gloating over how he beats Hannity. Frankly, I am tired of his shtick, and turn him off when he starts in on trashing other talkers.
To be fair, I have never heard Hannity anywhere but on FOX NEWS. I sometimes refer to him as Howdy Doody, but he is on our side. I know nothing about his radio show, but I do listen to Rush every day via my DAR.fm service.
I have been a Rush fan going back before Dan’s Bake Sale.
Savage had better get back to talking politics, or he will end up as a has-been.
Dirty air; dirty water, etc.
You ask the wrong question. Why does Weiner hate Levin? Weiner spends much of his program trashing other Conservatives, which in the minds of anyone paying attention, makes you wonder if Weiner is just a poser. My opinion, yes, Weiner is a fake.
“Savage is a self-centered, boring, condescending, blowhard. “

AMEN !!!
Actually he's not, despite his self bloviating braggadocio...... Here in S.E. Michigan, WJR 760 AM dropped Hannity from the two hour 3:00 P.M. – 5:00 P.M. time slot back in January. Not due to his ratings but rather because WJR is owned by Clear Channel and Hannity’s contract with Clear Channel ended and he dumped them. WJR had no choice but to bring down Savage from his obscure evening slot to fill the drive time two hours.
As for Hannity, he was immediately picked up by the Patriot Channel which has two stations here, 92.7 FM and 1400 AM, both of which now carry him in the extended three hour time slot of 3:00 PM – 6:00 PM…………
So we now not only get him for three hours but on the much preferred FM radio band………….
Now as for your claim that WABC in New York is “undeniably demolishing the Wallbanger” , keep in mind that Hannity is being carried on over 20 stations in the state, which would certainly dilute the individual station ratings. WABC is one of only three stations in the state out of the only 11 that carry the lunatic in the drive time slot of 3 PM – 5 PM. The rest air him in the 9:00 PM ozone slot…………..On virtually every station, Hannity is in the three hour slot of 3:00 PM – 6:00 PM……….
The claim that WABC is demolishing Hannity is bogus if you actually compare the listening audience of all the stations available within the New York radius………
That's like saying that Clinton was the overwhelming choice of voters back in 1996 with only 47% of the vote.........LOL!
NICE TRY!
Of course Hannity is a Republican hack. This is news? He is also a Cliffs Notes Conservative, having no more than a superficial understanding of the issues. He seems like a nice guy, but his radio show is impossible to listen to...mind-numbingly dumb and useless. Savage is endlessly entertaining and brilliant. So, by the way, is his nemesis Mark Levin. Those two, plus John Batchelor, are the only ones on the dial worth listening to.
These guys do not feud.
No one ever says anything about savage.
“I actually thought he was having an affair with her at one point, because it made so little sense to me.”
What a backdoor way to slam Palin.
He had her on so much because she draws a big audience, it’s about his numbers.
Malzberg is 100 times more interesting that Hannity, and WOR should consider that.
Hey, I’m not slamming Palin.
She had nothing to say. Anybody would wonder what she was doing on the news at that point.
