 As an advertiser, I care about two things :
 1. My ego. 'nough said about that one.
         If you need an explanation, you wouldn't understand anyway.

 2. How many potential members of my target market will I reach
    per my advertising dollar ?

 I don't give a rip what it costs to run a radio station.
 Just show me value for *my* dollar.
