United States Magistrate Judge Anthony Porcelli has set February 2nd as the date Nielsen and Todd Clem are to get together in a room and try to hammer out a deal in Clem’s ratings tampering case. Nielsen wants $1 million from Clem for allegedly contacting listeners with PPM meters which is against Nielsen’s rules. The judge said “although the average mediation conference usually takes between 3-5 hours, participants shall be prepared to spend as much time as necessary to settle the case, or until an impasse is declared.”
