These stations, currently listed as CHR/Pop, need to be moved to the Rhythmic panel - simply playing 1-3 pop/rock songs, and all other rhythmic songs I don't think qualifies a station as mainstream Pop, and greatly skews the CHR/Top 40 chart
KIIS/Los Angeles WFKS/Jacksonville FL
KHTS/San Diego WDKS/Evansville IN
Basically, if "Home" by Daughtry doesn't fit the STYLE of the listeners of a station, that station is PROBABLY rhythmic, not pop - especially if they're playing further CD cuts from T-Pain in heavy rotation that aren't even singles yet

You can add WKQI Detroit to that list.

WDKS isn't on the Mediabase panel so it doesn't affect that chart.
WDKF Dayton and WKST Pittsburgh are mostly rhythmic also.

WKSC/Chicago definitely needs to be moved to rhythmic, as someone pointed out in another thread - if you refuse to play Daughtry and Nickelback, how can you be considered "Pop" or "Top 40"?

Maybe there should be a CHR/Rhythmic version of American Top 40 with Ryan Seacrest since there are currently CHR/Pop and Hot AC versions of that radio show.

I haven't seen their playlist lately, but I remember WKFS Cincinnati leaning very rhythmic.
