Speaking of make-goods:

What is the accepted practice (and responsibility)
regarding makegoods on commercials with dropouts in
the audio?

One of the Wade Cooke ads on WBZ-AM has what sounds 
like a missing chunk of audio.  It sounds like "...
we're in the 18th month of a <glitch>un period.

If this were on tape, then it should have been caught
while transferring it.  If a file is shipped digitally,
and a piece is missing and the production person fails
to catch it, and it airs a few/several/many times before 
Wade Cooke and/or his authorized representative hears 
it, what would a station do?
