What place does the Steve Harvey Morning Show take in the Arbitron ratings for New York?
Steve Harvey arrived 18 months ago in the kingdom of the radio shock jocks, where the royalty included Howard Stern, Don Imus and Opie and Anthony. The “King of Comedy” surveyed the raunchy landscape and launched his morning drive-time show with some trepidation. “I was concerned about it,” Harvey said recently after finishing his four-hour weekday show at WBLS-FM. “But I am who I am. I can’t stop being who I am. I’m not a mean-spirited guy.” And so Harvey started his nascent show each morning with 12 minutes devoted to gospel music and God — a stark contrast to Stern’s salacious satellite shenanigans, or Opie & Anthony’s weekly Wednesday hunt for female flesh.

With Arbitron now issuing radio ratings monthly instead of quarterly, the changes in rankings tend to be more incremental and less dramatic. Still, a few things are worth noting in the May ratings that just came out: # WLTW (106.7 FM) still rules, as it has done for almost 15 years. Lite is No. 1 overall, averaging 6.3% of the audience, and No. 1 among the listeners advertisers pay the most money to reach, 25- to 54-year-olds. # WCBS-FM is No. 2 among all audiences, averaging about 5%. Between WCBS-FM and Lite, it seems clear a lot of New Yorkers like comfort radio. # In the morning, New Yorkers like news: The No. 1 and No. 2 morning stations are WINS (1010 AM) and WCBS-AM (880). Steve Harvey of WBLS (107.5 FM) is a strong third. http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/tv/2009/06/22/2009-06-22_radio_ratings_arbitrons_lite
