A positive report on the employment front plus somewhat encouraging signs regarding China helped fuel a big day of trading, and radio companies for the most part tagged along for the ride, led by Emmis, which was less than half a point away from a double-digit day. But television stocks just barely moved beyond where they started the day.


The RBR Radio Index rose 16.270, or 2.4%, to 694.811.

The TVBR Television Index rose 0.2, or 1.424%, to 716.077.
