Nielsen Audio has released Day 2 of its monthly four day sweep of ratings in PPM markets.

Today’s releases include Washington DC, Boston, Miami/Fort Lauderdale, Seattle, Phoenix, Detroit, Minneapolis, Tampa/St. Petersburg, Denver, San Diego, Baltimore, and St. Louis.

All the numbers can be found at RadioInsight.com/Ratings.

Univision’s stations are no longer subscribing to Nielsen.

The ongoing lawsuit between Cumulus Media and Nielsen means that Cumulus Media’s stations are no longer publicly listed in the ratings.

Audacy is no longer listing its streaming numbers separate from the broadcast, with the signals once again combined into one share.
