Audience dwindles for ABC Radio National’s breakfast program hosted by Patricia Karvelas

·

ABC Radio National’s listenership has notably decreased, with its soft ratings likely to concern the organisation’s chair Kim Williams.

Radio National’s program Breakfast with Patricia Karvelas has lost a sizeable chunk of its audience over the past twelve months, according to latest figures from GfK.

The ratings show Karvelas‘ program now has 79,000 listeners in Sydney, down from 100,000 in the same survey in 2023.

She now has 64,000 daily listeners in Melbourne, compared to the 94,000 audience she boasted this time last year.

Despite the fall in the number of listeners over the past year, Karvelas slightly increased her audience share in Melbourne and Sydney by 0.1 percentage points over the past three months.
