I think you and many media observers overstate the importance of Rush in 
the Boston market.  He finished in 18th place in his timeslot (25-54) in 
the most recent ratings.  By comparison, WTKK had 50% more AQH 
listeners, WBZ had 60% more, and WBUR had 75% more.  (The #1 station had 
over 300% more listeners.)
