Ben Fordham reigns supreme on breakfast radio as he takes the top spot in the latest survey

Ben Fordham remains the king of breakfast radio, according to the sixth radio poll of this year.

Data published in The Daily Telegraph on Tuesday, he showed he scored 16.9 percent of the audience, ahead of KIIS FM’s The Kyle and Jackie O Show with 12.8 percent.

The all-important timeslot saw the ABC at 10.7 percent and Smooth FM hosted by Bogart Torelli and Ron Wilson at 8.2 percent.

Ben said the great results were reflected in the team working for the top rated show.

“I’m lucky enough to have a gifted team of people working on a 2GB breakfast chasing the best guests and delivering results on behalf of our listeners,” he said.

“Our mission every morning is to deliver the best content and that doesn’t happen without a lot of work from a bunch of talented people,” he continued.

“I am so grateful to have such a great team and some extremely loyal listeners. If you haven’t discovered us yet, it’s probably time to tune in.”

Talkback station 2GB remains the number one station with a share of 12.8 percent, a decrease of 0.8 percentage points.

Overall, KISS came in third with a share of 9.5 percent, down 0.6 percentage points, ahead of ABC Sydney at 8.7 percent.

Ray Hadley continues to dominate the mornings with a market share of 15.6 percent, while Smooth FM comes after him with a market share of 12.7 percent.

Ben came in at number one in May for both AM and FM bandwidths, even after losing listeners.

Fordham posted a viewership share of 15.7 percent, a decent number despite a 3.2 percentage point drop since the last survey.

Fordham blamed the federal election for the decline in listeners, saying it was a turn-off for listeners who had grown tired of the news cycle.
