I think it's because of this p****ng contest Entercom has been having with Arbitrary. I think all the Entercom mks are embargoed...but, I could be wrong.
 
If I'm not mistaken, the Triad book has been embargoed several times in the past, has it not?

Even if it's embargoed, Entercom will still get it, provided that the subscribe, so I'm not sure the embargo has anything to do with their spitting contest.

I'd say somebody's been blabbing about the numbers when they shouldn't have been. I can think of at least a few prime suspects, too.

My source in the market sez there is an ethnic operator who buys local newspaper ads offering cash for a diary!! Arbitron has hissy fits about such.
 
The Triad Arbitron interim reports have been embargoed for about five years! The quarterly reports 12+ numbers are released for publication.

The database crashed and several posts from that time period were lost. Feel free to repost anything that you think was lost. If it was deleted by one of us, we'll just delete it again.<P ID="signature">______________

From WHO??? We don't know those folks at all. I think the alligators that caused the database to crash ate it.

Matt Smith is an alias, he is actually one of the men in black.
If you hear static off in some supposedly quiet part of the studio
it's "Matt" creeping around to wipe your memory.
George Norry told me so.

Oh well, until I get around to removing the unhealthy memory strands from Spindoctor's brain, just sign me...

Dear Poopie,
Is this your way of telling us to get back to radio issues?
If so, I agree...by the way, did you get your aka? By spoiling
everyones' fun? (Just kidding, that's what I do.)
