  • Will Kyle and Jackie O Give Mix106.5 the KIIS of Life?
    Article No. 5379 Available on www.roymorgan.com Link to Roy Morgan Profiles Thursday, 16 January 2014 Will Kyle and Jackie O give Mix106.5 the KIIS of life? Monday 20 January promises to be a massive day for Sydney breakfast radio. For those who’ve been living in a cave in Outer Mongolia (or outside Sydney, as the case may be!), that’s the date long-time 2Day FM breakfast DJs Kyle Sandilands and Jackie O start their new show at rival station Mix106.5 FM. It’s also the date Mix106.5 FM will be rebranded as KIIS FM. So will these major changes have the desired effect for Mix, boosting both their audience and advertising revenue? Roy Morgan investigates… The total Sydney radio market comprises almost 3.9 million people. According to data from Roy Morgan Research, market leader 2Day’s total audience comprises 15% of this (568,000 people), well ahead of Mix106.5’s 10% market share (393,000 people). With 506,000 listeners, or 13% market share, Nova 96.9 FM has Sydney’s second-largest commercial audience. Battle of the breakfasters Breakfast (5.30–9am) is traditionally one of commercial radio’s most competitive timeslots, and has been dominated in Sydney by Southern Cross Austereo-owned 2Day FM’s Kyle and Jackie O Show for years. In the 12 months to September 2013, 349,000 Sydneysiders (or 9% of the city’s total radio market) listened to the show at least once in any given seven-day period. 2Day, Mix106.5 and Nova 96.9: total vs breakfast audience numbers 600 568 506 IMMEDIATE RELEASE 500 393 400 FOR 349 300 262 Audience ('000) 206 200 100 0 2Day FM Mix 106.5 Nova 96.9 Total Audience Breakfast Show Audience Source: Roy Morgan Single Source (Australia), October 2012-September 2013 (n = 10,135).

  • Read the Report "Content, Consolidation and Clout
    Content, Consolidation And Clout How will regional Australia be affected by media ownership changes? A report by the Communications Law Centre 2006 Funded by a Faculty Grant from the University of New South Wales, 2005 Acknowledgements The authors would like to thank all those in Wollongong, Launceston, Townsville and Toowoomba who participated in the focus groups for this study, and the academics, commentators and journalists who gave us their time and insights. Special thanks go to: Elizabeth Beal, Philip Bell, Ginger Briggs, Lesley Hitchens, Jock Given, Julie Hillocks, Geoff Lealand, Julie Miller, Nick Moustakas and Julian Thomas. Analysis of media companies and a draft of some sections of Chapter Four were provided by Danny Yap as part of a placement for the University of New South Wales Law School social justice internship program. The Faculty Research Grants Committees of the Faculty of Law and the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at UNSW provided funding for the initial part of this project including the field work in regional centres. The project was completed by the authors following the closure of the Communications Law Centre at UNSW in June 2005. The CLC continues its policy, research and advocacy work through its centre at Victoria University.
