youmean IT'S NOT A ONE-STATION MARKET? No, Virginia, it's not a one-station market even though ARB, Nielsen and Puhc have made it look thai way, There really are other 7 V stations in Eastern North Carolina. Sure, these .ire the facts . . . . , . ARB (Jan. 1957) credits WTS'CT with: • every one of the top 15 shows • dominance of HO nighttime '4 hours (6 P.M. -Midnight, Sun. thru Sat.) • plus daytime dominance, too. • (confirming the earlier Pulse ratings) . . . Neilsen reports that WNCT reaches more Eastern N. C. homes and is viewed regularly by 40% more homes than any other station. But honest, Virginia, WNCT is not the only T\ station in Eastern X. C. It's just that .til those reliable sources keep making it look that way .
