Monetization & Promo Inventory

Commercial load and commercial units are paid spots only. Sponsor mentions and promo inventory are separate count/readout layers and do not inflate paid spot counts. A promo can also carry sponsor/advertiser metadata, so the promo table shows that overlap explicitly.

Promo inventory uses exact detected promo titles and keeps promos separate from paid commercial units. Sponsor/advertiser metadata in this table may also appear in the Sponsor Mentions or Advertiser Mentions tables because those sections count name references, not additional promo events.

Commercial Span / Stopset Strategy

Commercial spans are aligned to Step 13 canonical stopset envelopes when present. Promos/PSAs/sponsorships can be included inside a stopset, but standalone promo/contest windows without commercial core are reported as break-inventory outliers.

Sweeps / Flow

Morning-show flow captures continuous non-commercial listener-facing continuity between ad clusters; it can include music, host content, actual contesting, short promos, imaging, service elements, and transitions.

Local Advertiser / Sponsor Signals

NameEvents
No local advertiser/sponsor names detected by the lightweight rules.

Method Note

General Localness Snapshot is the legacy one-hour signal across all event types. Strict localness emphasizes concrete place, service, community, or extracted legal-ID market references; broad localness includes station/market identity and softer community signals. It intentionally uses only market-agnostic terms plus any city/cities extracted from legal-ID evidence.
