NR TOP 20 for July ACCORDING TO GOOGLE

July readership of National Radio stories provided the biggest shakeup since we began the rankings at the beginning of the year. All of the top six entries are new.

VIDEO BEAT jumped to the top of the list with a focus on Angelina Jolie's past a her HBO hit movie GIA. We also gave recognition to Jolie's father John Voight and listed his film credits that are more extensive than his daughters.

The FRESHIE BOY & GIRL CONTEST jumped back into the Top 10. They've been absent since early in the year after the final was held in January.

Much of the interest is in large part due to our coverage on Ms VANDA the 2005 Freshie Girl 1st runner-up who is experiencing a budding career as a television host.

Surprisingly the NR Top 10 columns made the list for the first time and swept away the 3-5 rankings.

The FIFA TOP 10 makes the list for the first time holding down the number six position.

DJ Ken's PHNOM PENH column is also a first time entrant in the top 20 by taking the 11th and 19th spots.

As noted in his columns there is a strong interest in the planned upcoming Miss. Cambodia contest. The winner of that contest will be entered into the 2007 Miss. Universe Contest.

The ANGKOR WAT TEMPLES was the only survivor of the previous NR Top 10.

11 - 20

The TV - Radio Sub page received a lot of attention with the Miss Cambodia Contest and the review of Angelina Jolie's film GIA

There were some holdovers in the 11-20 bracket including a look at Jerome Bettis the now retired Pittsburgh Steeler running back that inspired them to the NFL's SUPER BOWL title.

The GRAMMY AWARDS television show continues to hold interest as that review rounds off the top 20.
