Most analyses of public radio listening examine the performance of individual stations within this large mix, the contributions of specific national programs, or aggregate numbers for the system as a whole. This report takes a different approach. Through an extensive, multi-year study of 228 stations that generate about 80% of public radio’s audience, we review patterns of listening to groups of stations categorized by the formats that they present. We find that stations that pursue different format strategies – news, classical, jazz, AAA, and the principal combinations of these – have experienced significantly different patterns of audience growth in recent years and important differences in key audience behaviors such as loyalty and time spent listening. This quantitative study complements qualitative research that the Station Resource Group, in partnership with Public Radio Program Directors, and others have pursued on the values and benefits listeners perceive in different formats and format combinations. Key findings of The Public Radio Format Study include: • In a time of relentless news cycles and a near abandonment of news by many commercial stations, public radio’s news and information stations have seen a 55% increase in their average audience from Spring 1999 to Fall 2004.

For centuries, it has linked the eastern and western regions of the Indian subcontinent, running from Bengal, across north India, into Peshawar, Pakistan. Horses, donkeys, and pedestrians compete with huge trucks, cars, motorcycles, rickshaws, and bicycles along the highway, a commercial route that is dotted with areas of activity right off the road: truck stops, farmer’s stands, bus stops, and all kinds of commercial activity.

Wood Ronald D. Maines WOOD HARDY & MARTIN, P.C. 3300 Fairfax Drive, Suite 202 Arlington, Virginia 22201 (703) 465-2361 Its counsel August 10, 2017 SUMMARY United Communications Corporation is the licensee of KEYC-TV, the CBS affiliate in Mankato, Minnesota. Pending before the Commission is United’s petition for a waiver of the significantly viewed exception to the network non-duplication and syndicated exclusivity rules. The matter involves four out-of-market television stations listed as significantly viewed in cable communities throughout KEYC- TV’s market. Three of the stations are licensed to Minneapolis or St. Paul, Minnesota (“the Twin Cities Distant Stations”). The fourth – KAAL – is licensed to Austin, Minnesota. Viewership statistics for the distant stations were generated by The Nielsen Company. The cases for which Nielsen statistics indicated a loss of significantly viewed status were set forth in the petition. The Nielsen results as a whole, however, were perplexing. The surveys registered viewership in communities outside of the possible transmission ranges of the Twin Cities Distant Stations. A station should not be credited with viewership – significant or otherwise – in a community if its signal is not viewable over-the-air in that community. In such event, Nielsen studies should reflect zero viewership.

The legislature appropriates the dollars from the Legacy Arts and Culture Fund to the Minnesota State Arts Board, Regional Arts Councils, Minnesota Historical Society and other entities to provide access to the arts and culture for all Minnesotans. “Creative Minnesota’s new 2019 report is about Minnesota’s arts and creative sector. It includes stateWide, regional and local looks at nonprofit arts and culture organizations, their audiences, artists and creative Workers. This year it also looks at the availability of arts education in Minnesota schools,” said SMith. “We also include the results of fifteen local studies that show substantial economic iMpact from the nonprofit arts and culture sector in every corner of the state, including $4.9 million in the City of Eagan, $2.4 million in the City of Hastings, 11 million in the City of Hopkins, $4 million in the Maple Grove Area, $541 million in the City of Minneapolis, and $1.5 million in the City St.
