Dan Kennedy asked me about the nice article Scott & I were in. His 
question was "Why is WBUR's share more than 3 times that of WGBH, yet 
its lead in total listeners is less than double?" Hot theories anyone? 


 
This suggests that WGBH has much higher time-spent-listening from a smaller cume audience.  Why?  It's possible that the WGBH listeners like their station's programming better and listen longer.  But I think it's because WBUR has a much stronger image as the NPR news and information station, and attracts far more casual button-pushers who don't tend to listen as long.
