Holy Poo... there are a lot of changes.  Nearly any broadcast schedule containing primetime in Second Quarter will have to be entirely re-booked.   Good thing clients will already have entirely new customized estimates with rationale tomorrow after this huge shift in programs.

Clients now have new Second Quarter estimates published to their inventory.

If you would like this level of service, please visit RatingBook.com for more information.
