Boston Radio Ratings September 2021

Eli Polonsky said:
On their list the WBZ-FM format is listed as "Sports" but the WEEI-FM format is listed as "All Sports". What's the difference?

Those format names are determined by the website or publication that posts them. Nielsen does not give its format descriptors to the media. That's why different websites give the same station different format names at times.

But these are two stations with the same format in the same city on the same publication's website, yet the format is given one way for one station and another way for the other. Did multiple people prepare and enter the data the went into creating the Boston ratings page? Does Radio Online not have an in-house style guide or editors, or is it just a bunch of radio wannabe fanboys playing journalist on the interwebs?
