 I'm not too sure about these terms. I hear them thrown around and they seem
 to me to be a bastardisation of McLuhan's ideas.

 I guess it stems from the thought that radio requires more use of
 imagination, however I would argue that TV users are active in that they
 certainly do not passively accept what is put to them.

Could it refer to radio being accessible for feedback (interactive), e.g.
calling-in on talk shows and commenting on programs while that opportunity is
not the norm on TV?

Just guesssing with greetings
