Australians have always had a relationship with, and trust in, their local radio station and this close connection can help build a solid foundation for all COMMERCIAL RADIO stakeholders including direct advertisers, agencies and clients. MARKET PROFILES 2018. Even as technology changes commercial radio remains live and local continuing to offer advertisers an unique means of delivering a targeted message and successfully engaging at a grassroots level. Listening to a radio ad has been likened to hearing it from a friend. The Commercial Radio Market Profiles are a reference tool to help communicate with advertising agencies, media buyers and potential clients for planning radio advertising in Australia. They are designed to provide a thorough understanding of each radio licence area’s size and demographics and to highlight the connection and engagement opportunities available on local and networked radio. These Commercial Radio Market Profiles should be used in conjunction with resources available on the Commercial Radio Australia (CRA) website, radioalive.com.au, with up to date case studies, current station information, commercial radio listening summaries and consumer research which explores why Australians tune into radio. The information in these profiles is based on radio Licence Area Plans (LAP), as determined by the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA). Statistical information is derived from the latest Australian Bureau of Statistics Census of Population and Housing conducted on 9 August 2016, the 2015-16 Household Expenditure Survey, and the 2015-16 Agricultural Census. The Commercial Radio Market Profiles 2018 illustrate the potential of the localism, cost effectiveness, reach, and listener loyalty and engagement of commercial radio.

  • Company Statement from Macquarie Media Chairman, Russell Tate
    COMPANY STATEMENT FROM MACQUARIE MEDIA CHAIRMAN, RUSSELL TATE Saturday 17 August 2019 On Thursday on his 2GB and 4BC breakfast show, Alan Jones made certain comments in respect of New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, which caused offence to many people. Recognising the offence caused by his remarks, Alan on Friday publicly apologised for them. In his apology, Alan recognised that his comments were “careless, unnecessary and wrong”, and “should have been more clearly thought out”. He indicated that he had apologised sincerely to Prime Minister Ardern for any offence given, and had certainly not intended to suggest any harm through his comments. Notwithstanding his apologies, I have today discussed the matter with Alan and advised him that any recurrence of commentary of this nature will result in the termination of his contract.
