PLJ's double adds

I know there is a stupid rule that states you can't play broadcast spots on the internet....but lately during the cooper showbiz blogs... They always play a quick ten second sponsor spot before the reports..but lately for the internet feed, they add in a full length commercial instead...usually about a minute or a minute ten, and we miss a good story and a half. wouldn't it make more sense to have S and T or someone at the station re-record the spot for the internet so we don't miss out on showtime?

I also tuned in during the holiday break...is it standard for them to have double the adds read by the replacement traffic reporter? Before the traffic started, Debbie D read one add that was about 40 seconds, then a 20 second traffic report, and then another add that was about 50 seconds. As a listener, it almost makes you wonder what the point of the traffic report is ;o)..

later!
 
there are 3 traffic reports per hour. during the holiday, that number was cut down to 2. the traffic reporter still has to get 3 commercials done for the hour. those rules are from the traffic network, not wplj
