Boston PPM ratings

Wrong. They came out right on schedule...March 26th at noon.

OK, it's Friday March 27th at 5:00 pm EDST, and there are NO Boston ratings on radioandrecords.com or on arbitron.com. Remember when George W. Bush did a video showing him on his hands and knees in the Oval Office saying "the WMD's must be around here somewhere"? Maybe you can provide a link to these ratings that seem to be unrecoverable in all the normal places.
 
If I recall correctly, these ratings (Jan-Feb-Mar) are not being released by Arbitron to the public because the PPM is not currency yet. I imagine the first month of the spring book will be your first chance to see some of the surprises that subscriber stations are seeing already.

Embargoed .

They are not embargoed you dolt. The numbers coming out now are pre-currency. As of right now the Fall book is currency. The book that is still currency, still in effect is the fall book. These PPM numbers are to give stations an idea of what is going on with PPM but cannot be used beyond that. They are not for public consumption nor for sales purposes. They become currency toward the end of April when the March monthlies come out.

You should embargo yourself from the board.

Another great contribution by WIll.

Tell us Will, do you come to the Radio-Info board just to piss and moan?

karsonwithak had it correct...these results/numbers are embargoed to the press and outside media. Although subscribers got them.

No, I come here to see if anybody has posted anything related to the ratings, and when the thread gets bumped, all I see is Rapking flapping his gums about nonsense, for which I'm completely justified in flaming him.

Everybody who wants to post here should be required to read the posts of Eli and Raccoon before they can post to see how it's done.

You know what they say, don't feed the trolls. If you do, you create 3 times the noise.
