Is it just me, or is 3AW becoming stale?

Dont want to blow smoke up mumbrella’s tailpipe, but thankgod for all the great radio ratings reporting today.
the once popular industry sites, radiotoday and radioinfo are a shadow of their former self with no critical analysis, and indepth reporting.
im surprised radio networks are still advertising on them given such a lacklustre approach to their reporting on ratings day.
(no i dont work for mumbrella, and never used to read the site much but it’s the only serious place to get radio industry updates now)
im writing feedback here because those ‘radio sites’ would never print it, but i hope they see this!!
