WEEI is only in Worcester because 1440 kept coming along for the ride 
every time 107.3 was sold as part of a Boston cluster (first ARS, then 
Entercom). If Entercom didn't already own 1440, would they be paying 
someone else to carry WEEI programming? (And that's at least the core of 
the Worcester market, not the fringe.)

Heck, even when Entercom was placing Sox games, complete with 
Worcester/WVEI ad load, on WCRN for free, it apparently didn't move the 
needle enough to be worth continuing the arrangement. I don't know where 
you'd tune now to hear the Sox if you're in Athol or Orange. WVEI sure 
doesn't get there, and Entercom doesn't seem to care.
