Can somebody explain the what reweighting is and how it affects the AI updates?
The numbers of Mediabase are extremely inflated, they use a different formula to calculate the Audience per station compared to Nielsen. I think they noticed it's pretty high and they reduce it
I think we had one around a year ago, but we did have a huge adjustment back in March 2012:

They've been inflated ever since March 2012. The amount they're inflated by totally fluctuates over time. It's really annoying and I stopped following overall AI as strongly after all this happened.
Probably 0. Most of the airplay so far comes from one ALT station in Los Angeles and another one in San Francisco. I think May 5th is the official release date.

Ah, thanks. I thought it was getting like .200 from non-ALT though?
