San Diego, CA 92108

lisa f. writes: Thank you, Ninety Four Nine, for being the last bastion of intelligence on the radio. I'm one of those folks that can listen to pretty much anything. (When I had a car with AM only, I listened to KPOP.) But when most radio folks open their mouths,…

KSDS
Neighborhood: Downtown

1313 Park Blvd
San Diego, CA 92101

San Diego City Beat

3550 Camino Del Rio N
Ste 207
San Diego, CA 92108

Tiffany S. writes: Years ago, City Beat was SLAMM, a local free music rag, and a damn good one at that. It's still the best print resource in town for local music stories and comprehensive listings. The music reviews are hilarious and/or spot on, and while Troy Johnson…

9660 Granite Ridge Dr
San Diego, CA 92123

Neighborhood: Serra Mesa

9660 Granite Ridge Dr
Ste 200
San Diego, CA 92123

Stephanie B. writes: After listening to this station more, I realized they are guilty of the same thing that other radio stations like to do...they play the same songs over and over again. It is radio though, so I guess it's to be expected and at least they crank those…

Channel 39 - Cable 7 - KNSD
Neighborhood: Gaslamp

225 Broadway
San Diego, CA 92101

Tracy S. writes: Watching their fire coverage the past three days, I give this channel five stars.

Non-sensational reporting (for the most part); their use of Thomas guide maps when regular maps would take too long to come up with; the twelve hour shifts the anchors…

740 13th Street
San Diego, CA 92101

San Diego, CA 92111

Lucy E. writes: I think the JACK FM AM show has finally gotten their groove.

Monique is the main DJ. She was a road comic for years. Sassy!!!! I like that her humor is smart/wit. Her sidekicks are Greg and Sara.

It reminds me of listening in at a family…

Kgtv Channel 10 News

4600 Air Way
San Diego, CA 92102

Steve R. writes: Walker S. review sounds like it came straight from the PR department at KGTV.

Carol LeBeau looks like a doting mother while poor Hal Clement looks like he is…

1250 6th Ave
San Diego, CA 92101

mike s. writes: If I'm a bit biased in my review I apologize. If I get the details mixed up it's because the events that took place happened when I was 6-17 years old. Please let me know and I'll correct.

Kyxy 96 5 Fm Radio

8033 Linda Vista Rd
San Diego, CA 92111

Xetv Fox 6
Neighborhood: Kearny Mesa

8253 Ronson Rd
San Diego, CA 92111

Steve R. writes: Your daily source for all republican approved news. Sadly this has seeped down to the local news level too.

Solid…

The Ubiquitous Bee

2400 Kettner Blvd
studio 252
San Diego, CA 92101

Neighborhood: Chula Vista

581 Telegraph Canyon Rd
Chula Vista, CA 91910

Kgtv San Diego's 10

4600 Air Way
San Diego, CA 92102

Wheatstraw J. writes: This station has been lousy for at least 25 years. Stale old hacks like Jack White, Bill Griffith, Carol Le Beau are the norm for this station that time forgot. There's an very conservative vibe on all of the local television stations. All of the…

San Diego Union-Tribune

350 Camino De La Reina
San Diego, CA 92108

stephen l. writes: Sunday mornings were fun family time in the stephen l. household. I'd wake up around 7 and start a pot of coffee, boil or poach a couple of eggs, cut some fresh fruit, and dish out some yogurt. Maybe I'd toast some bread or a bagel. Then I'd run down…

7191 Engineer Rd
San Diego, CA 92111

susie g. writes: Sometimes, I watch Fox News in the morning to laugh -- oh, to laugh so hard. See it as a comedy show and you'll start doing it too.

Sometimes I have to…

University of California San Diego
9500 Gilman Dr
La Jolla, CA 92039

Carmel Valley News

12625 High Bluff Dr
Ste 215
San Diego, CA 92130

Steve R. writes: An okay newspaper for a weekly.

Once you get past page 3 or so you have read all the news there is for the week and the rest are just inserts and ads for real estate companies - but I guess that's how they keep the paper free.

The paper is also online…

7677 Engineer Rd
San Diego, CA 92111

Mason T. writes: The upside down billboard idea was pretty good. I noticed them.

9710 Scranton Road
Ste 200
San Diego, CA 92121

Rob K. writes: Well I reviewed FM 94.9 so I guess I should at least say a few words here about 102.1. Just to be a dick and drive home the point about how much 94.9 infuriates me I'm giving KPRI one more star than them. In truth I listent to KPRI less and would…

San Diego, CA 92101

ruggy j. writes: Just thought I'd join the review bandwagon...

I don't really read it, but they have the best ads in town. I love getting drunk, then scouring their pages for male pattern baldness ads...and unwanted male breast tissue ads. Classic.

That's all I like.…
