White Plains, NY - (October 4, 2006) Media Monitors, LLC has licensed use of its advertising data of broadcast TV and print media to the management and sales departments of radio group owner Greater Media. A user of Media Monitors' radio spot data since 2004, Greater Media is adding the newly available media data from broadcast TV and newspapers to its tracking toolbox.

Media Monitors delivers same-day broadcast data to media, media researchers and ad agencies from its Web site, www.mediamonitors.com.

Generali continues, "Greater Media is paving the way for future sales opportunities by stretching beyond our radio capabilities to embrace our newspaper and broadcast TV tracking as well."

"We've been using radio spot data from Media Monitors for over two years and all of our stations have found the competitive information it provides extremely useful," says Rick Feinblatt, VP/Radio at Greater Media. "Now, we can provide our sales staffs with the same easily accessible information on Newspaper and Broadcast TV, which gives us the opportunity to grow radio's share of our markets' advertising dollars."
