After doubling sales records there, they decided that his performance was lacking... ... wtf ferreal?
Anyway, I'm not big on Clear Channel.

It measures down to minute by minute listening patterns and the early data says people turn the station when ads come on. So stations have to find a way to keep listeners tuned in without losing ad dollars.
