WINNIPEG — The numbers are in and news talk reigns supreme on the dial for Winnipeg radio stations.

Numeris has released the Fall 2021 ratings book, which provides early Christmas gifts for CBC Radio One and 680 CJOB.

The two stations remained the top choices, respectively, followed by QX 104 and Bounce Radio 99.9 (formerly 99.9 BOB FM).

Bell Media’s 103.1 Virgin Radio (Bounce’s sister station) cracks the top five ahead of the city’s rock and AC genres, increasing its share from the spring.

The below data is for the 12+ demographic, with the Spring 2021 ratings in parentheses for comparison.
