Top Story Report: WTOP is No. 1 radio station for ad revenue once again
Hubbard's WTOP in Washington, D.C., for the fourth year in a row generated the most ad revenue among U.S. radio stations in 2013, BIA/Kelsey is reporting.

"It's simply not going to happen, given the current economic environment."
