I wonder if bubba realizes that he himself is in part to blame for Billy and Drew getting good ratings?

[Chob]

Online listeners don't count towards the way the measure ratings I don't think. But if he's helping them, that's good for everyone. Well except him when he wants to negotiate for a new contract. And I don't think he necessarily wants to.

[Chob]

Well Arbitron does get online listening data but I don't think it counts if you're outside the market. Fuck, who knows.

I'm not speaking of online

how many local people would just leave the radio on instead of going to the computer now?

Why bother since it's a replay?

Ah ok, talking about local IO listeners. Yeah that probably does help with listener numbers.

lets face it - the majority of the IO fans are still pretty local to florida. A lot of the calls come from florida...

I swear I remember Spice saying people listening online didn't count towards his ratings. Am I wrong here?

might not count in ratings but the people who sign your paycheck get reports on the online numbers. I'm sure it says how many are listening to what show so it might not count with arbitron but it does with the higher ups

No doubt. But it's not "ratings" in the literal sense.

[SJ]

this is a fucking suicidal tendencies rip off

I was thinking, even if they wanted to syndicate Spice, Fort Myers is the only station I can think of with a compatible format. Don't know how many hot talkers are around other than those two.
