Note: Data from previous years is updated annually. The BIA Advisory Services database contains revenue data for every year shown in the chart for 355 of the 965 all-news, news-talk, and news-talk-info stations; therefore, only those stations are included in the averages. BIA Advisory Services does not typically report revenue for stations that are not part of a radio market. Data includes full-power AM and FM radio stations in the BIA Advisory Services database in 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia.
