Now I’m confused. Exactly what numbers put NW at #1 if the other stations rank #1 in the all-important M and F25-54?
I agree Theresa. If NW is #1 in the A12+ until dead category, which I would assume covers all adults 12+, then how can M and F 25-54 have other #1 stations? Maybe it’s people who self-identify as other than M and F who listen to NW more.
