Birmingham Radio Research

I received a call at home Monday night from "Birmingham Radio Research" wanting to ask me about my radio listening habits. I asked them who they worked for, CC or Citadel or Cox. They assured me they were independent, of course. I went along with it. What station do you listen to most often? What station do you listen to in the morning? What station in Birmingham carries Patti and Dollar Bill? AHA! You work for CC. She hung up on me.

He's probably talking about the web site I posted...Its blocked here at work. It appeared via google to be a blog that someone mentioned Birmingham Radio Research and had a copy of the script they used. I'll check it out when I get home tomorrow morning. Apologies if it wasn't what I thought it was.<P ID="signature">______________

Go back to June 15, 2005 and you will find the appropriate entry.

"I like to watch the moon." I'll have to use that on the next survey drone that calls here.

Thanks for finding that...I surfed it a little more and found out it is called the Clear Channel/Critical Mass Media Call Center. I am guessing Cinncinnati I think, she mentions a lot of cities in the blog. You were right in the beginning that it is definitely Clear Channel though.
From the blogging they pretty much hire anyone with a voice and a pulse and over schedule the phone bank in a first come first that gets to work kind of thing. It just people wanting to make an extra buck.<P ID="signature">______________
