And in order that people may have the opportunity to hear again the broadcasts of network radio, recordings of these broad- casts should be gathered and held in a sound library. This sound library, then, would be a central location where one could go to check-out certain broadcasts for study. However: before a library can begin to accumulate its docu- ments, an evaluation process should be undertaken to decide which broadcasts were the important contributions to radio's history. It is, then, the purpose of this study to compile a list of significant broadcasts for such a sound library. More specifically, the purpose of this project is to both cate- gorically list the important programs, voices, and events that we re a part of the four major networks, and to give a brief explanation John Edward Carl of why each was important.

  • The Role of Radio Broadcasters in the Diffusion of Advanced Statistics in Major League Baseball Broadcasts
    WHIP, BABIP, AND FIP: THE ROLE OF RADIO BROADCASTERS IN THE DIFFUSION OF ADVANCED STATISTICS IN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL BROADCASTS by ERIC NEHM B.A., Maryville University of St. Louis, 2012 A THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE A.Q. Miller School of Journalism and Mass Communication College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2015 Approved by: Major Professor Dr. Barbara DeSanto Copyright ERIC NEHM 2015 Abstract The purpose of this study was to take a closer look at the use of advanced statistics in Major League Baseball (MLB) radio broadcasts and the possible effects usage could have on the roles of MLB broadcasters. This study used a theoretical framework supported by role theory and diffusion of innovations theory. The study employed in-depth interviews of eight MLB radio broadcasters to get a better understanding of the broadcasters’ thoughts on the value of advanced statistics, how using advanced statistics could affect their role as a broadcaster, the factors that influence the potential inclusion of advanced statistics in their broadcasts, and ultimately, whether broadcasters perceived advanced statistics as a trend or a fad. The interviews revealed a number of things about the baseball broadcasting industry with disagreements appearing in regards to techniques in using advanced statistics in broadcasts and the value of advanced statistics to listeners. Despite the disagreements, the most important finding was the unanimous belief that advanced statistics are not a fad, but rather something that will remain a part of baseball broadcasts going forward. Keywords: sports broadcasting, broadcasting, broadcasting roles, advanced statistics, sabermetrics, sports broadcast content Table of Contents List of Tables ...........................................................................................................................
