Minnesota Public Radio said 72 percent listen to classical music, regularly and 60 percent with little interest.
Though, classical music hasn't attracted a large audience that much -they claim news audiences are declining.

  As Public Radio continues its decline into mediocrity, it will have to redefine "classical music" to embrace more and more the likes of Charlotte Church, Sarah Brightman, Andre Rieu, etc., to attract any meaningful numbers of listeners. The unlikelihood of even that prospect has found more and more public stations sucking at the teat of news and talk formats.
  What a shame that the network that was created as a source of alternative programming has become so desperate to accommodate the truly mundane

    No, Minnesota Public Radio would never reinvent the classical music format, I have no idea what kind of classical music audiences were they talking about? MPR doesn't play a mixture of easy-listening and classical, do they?
