According to Arbitron numbers published today, Michael attracted 4,700 listeners per average 15-minute segment during the months of May, June and July. White and Kravitz had 3,700 listeners per average 15-minute segment.

White and Kravitz can claim more listeners per week — 31,300 to 25,600 — but Michael’s audience members spent a daily average of 3 hours, 45 minutes listening to him compared to 2 hours, 15 minutes logged by White and Kravitz loyalists.

Arbitron rankings, compiled through the written diaries of listeners, are summarized in three-month blocks.

“It’s becoming more of a split decision,” WFNI program manager Kent Sterling said. “Kravitz and Eddie have won a lot of individual months.”
