There's no point in asking an attitudinal question about radio listening when Arbitron possesses real honest-to-goodness behavioral data. In other words, the diaries already tell the tale. No telephone study of attitudes will do better in measuring changes in radio listening.
And what tale do those diaries tell? One of erosion, especially in TSL, and especially among the young.
