  • WMUK Underwriting
    WMUK underwriting Why underwrite? Underwriting is a unique partnership with WMUK public radio that affords your business the opportunity to build additional awareness in West Michigan. 2 Crafting your message Message guidelines Underwriting differs from traditional radio advertising in both sound and spirit. The public radio audience responds to straight- forward information presented with clarity and sincerity. WMUK underwriting announcements are fifteen seconds in length and may include some of the following elements: • The sponsor’s product or service line • A neutral description of products or services • The sponsor’s established corporate slogan • Business location/telephone number/website • Time sensitive or event information • A statement of the underwriter’s institutional goals The format of underwriting announcements is fundamental to the non-commercial content of public broadcasting and protects the style and sound that our listeners value so highly. We help you to craft a clear, memorable statement that will have a positive impact on listeners, and is FCC compliant. Sample announcements “Support for WMUK comes from Bell’s Brewery, makers of fine beer, ale, porter and stout. A wide selection is offered at Bell’s Eccentric Cafe located at the original brewery in Downtown Kalama- zoo. Bell’s – Inspired Brewing; on the web at bellsbeer–dot–com.” “Support for WMUK comes from the Gilmore, proud supporters of Performance Today broadcasts on WMUK.

The survey focused upon the auspices, structure, affiliation, day-to-day managerial responsibility, and administrative liaison of the stations; their commercial or non-commercial status; and the nature and scope of their programing. A multiple-choice questionnaire wAs mailed to 439 stations; of the 233 that responded, 25 stations reported that they were not operative carrier stations, resulting in a net sample of 208 stations. The findings indicated that: most stations are run as undergraduate student activities, few stations are used for formal or informal training; most stations carry commercial advertising, but few rely upon time sales for their main support; most stations rely upon institutional or student generated funds for their main support; programing consists mainly of recorded music; most stations afford little or no opportunity for student self-expression or news and public affairs programing; and most stations appear relatively free from institutional or outside controls but in most cases there appears to be little or no inclination to use this freedom innovatively.
