I know most stations have some sort of promotion during "sweeps", though I don't recall one ever for the entire WSCR lineup. Are the ratings for these toilet drinkers that bad they have to coerce people to listen via "qualify to win" scams?

Yes, the ratings are that bad.

This is an interesting way for the Score promotions department to beg us to listen.

Cubs season starts Sunday night and the ratings bloom like a flower in the May sunshine. CBS got their moneymaker they could care less about the daily shit shows. And so it goes...

Amen to that. Cubs add 2 to their share and carry the station for 6 months.

which means eventually Mitch figures out he can cut costs with no ratings drop by not renewing Bernstein

The Cubs are a loss leader for 'SCR. Ricketts bamboozled 670 into paying for prestige.

"The Score is celebrating 25 years and we want to thank you, the fans. We couldn't have done it without you."

How they thank you goes unanswered. No special promotions. No give aways. Fans weren't even invited to the de facto reunion show.
