BE WARNED

Everybody keep their freedom of speech, political, gender, color and religious views to themselves or go to the Political Board.


10) Off-Topic Posting: Posts are to be on the topic of the board description where they're posted. Off Topic posts may be moved or closed at the moderators discretion. We do not allow homework threads. All political discussion is to be done on the Political Discussion Forum.

17) Moderator Abuse (Attacking/Disobeying the moderators): If you disagree with something the moderators did, fine, disagree and let us know, but do it politely through PM or email ONLY. Complaining on the forums is not permitted. If your thread or post was moved/closed/removed there was a good reason for it. Do not start a new one. Attacking or flaming a moderator via PM is subject to a Moderator Abuse infraction. Be respectful and considerate. Profanity and abusive conduct isn't tolerated.
Do not plead the first amendment and cite your right to free speech. It does not apply to the private sector. This is a privately owned website. Dancing around the rules, purposely skirting them just to see us twitch will not help you out much, either.
Do not post on behalf of someone who's banned. That will get you banned as well. The idea of being banned is that the banned member no longer is a part of this online community and is not allowed to interact here. No making threads that give glory to banned people. It's not a violation to mention the them in passing but no threads that focus on them. ("Ah, Troll du Jour, I miss him so!" or "Hey, it's Troll du Jour's birthday!"). Prohibited threads include "What banned member do you miss/would you bring back?" type of threads. If a moderator gives you a specific instruction in a warning, and you blatantly disregard it, you are subject to being banned.

The Sports Hub remains top-rated radio station in Boston - The Boston Globe

In the latest round of ratings between Boston’s two sports radio heavyweights, The Sports Hub remained the top-rated station in the market in the spring Nielsen Audio ratings, while WEEI finished second.

The Sports Hub (98.5 FM) earned a 10.6 share overall in the men 25-54 demographic from the period of March 29-June 20 to finish first. WEEI (93.7 FM) was second with a 7.2 share.

WVEI, parent company of Entercom’s Providence-based station that carries WEEI’s programming, earned an additional 0.6 share in the Boston market.

In the always contentious battle among morning drive (6-10 a.m.) programs, The Sports Hub’s “Toucher and Rich” show was first (10.2), while WEEI’s “Kirk and Callahan” program was second (9.4, 9.8 with WVEI’s 0.4 share included).

In middays (10 a.m-2 p.m.), classic rock station WZLX’s “Carter Alan” program was first (10.0). The Sports Hub’s “Zo and Beetle” show was second (9.2), while WEEI’s “OMF” show was third (8.8) but moves to second with the WVEI share included (1.0).

It should be noted that Nielsen advises that the WVEI share should not be added to the WEEI share, even though it is true that WVEI comes in better in the Boston market in some areas than does WEEI, such as the South Coast.

The reason, per Nielsen, is that the purpose of the ratings is to reflect the same content and advertising load at a specific station or program. The advertising content on WEEI and WVEI is different — Entercom has made the decision to sell the stations separately — and thus any share from WVEI should count separately.

In afternoon drive (2-6 p.m.), the Sports Hub’s “Felger and Massarotti” remained the highest-rated program in the market, finishing first with 14.7 share. WEEI’s “Dale and Keefe” program was second (6.8, 0.9 for WVEI).

In the 6-7 p.m. window, The Sports Hub, which usually airs “The Baseball Reporters” hosted by Tony Massarotti in that slot, took first (13.3). WEEI, which typically features the Red Sox pregame show in that period, finished fourth (5.8, 0.4 for WVEI).
