Six minutes early… or four minutes late?

KIDO/NewsRadio 580 has a bumper running during its morning news:

“Traffic and weather together - six minutes faster - on NewsRadio 580, KIDO.”

It’s a not so transparent shot at KBOI/NewsTalk 670. KIDO does the traffic and weather dance on the 10s (:00, :10, :20 etc.) while KBOI does it on the 6s (:06, :16, :26). So depending on your perspective, KIDO is six minutes faster… or four minutes slower.

    Amateur marketing ploy meant to try to play more value on a service that is no more valuable than any other offering.
