  • Telling Public Radio's Story
    Cincinnati Public Radio Local Services Report- FY 2018 1. Describe your overall goals and approach to address identified community issues, needs, and interests through your station’s vital local services, such as multiplatform long and short- form content, digital and in-person engagement, education services, community information, partnership support, and other activities, and audiences you reached or new audiences you engaged. Cincinnati Public Radio believes that to stay relevant and vital to listeners’ lives, as well as to grow audience, WGUC and WVXU must move from a mass media broadcast mentality to a pro-active engagement model that sets it apart and focuses on building community and providing meaningful content, especially local content, whenever and wherever listeners are seeking it. As such, local programming includes the programs Cincinnati Edition, Around Cincinnati, and Cincinnati Spotlight, as well as local podcasts Start Hear and Looking Up. Content from these programs addressed issues of importance to the community - such as the 2017 local, state and national elections, racial disparities in health care, Aging issues and living solutions, children and gun violence, sexual assault, immigration policy and refugee placement, organ donation, Ohio’s In-Demand Jobs Week, neighborhood activities and arts performances – and was available via on-air broadcasts, as well as online and mobile platforms. The station apps and website made the live broadcast streams easily accessible and offered links to individual content segments. Educational programs introducing children to classical music (Classics for Kids®) and voting and the political process (Democracy and Me) provided expanded outreach to students and teachers. Station personnel are active and visible in the community, interacting with listeners and community leaders to learn their needs and concerns - and representing the station across the region.

  • Podcasting As Public Media: the Future of U.S
    International Journal of Communication 14(2020), 1683–1704 1932–8036/20200005 Podcasting as Public Media: The Future of U.S. News, Public Affairs, and Educational Podcasts PATRICIA AUFDERHEIDE American University, USA DAVID LIEBERMAN The New School, USA ATIKA ALKHALLOUF American University, USA JIJI MAJIRI UGBOMA The New School, USA This article identifies a U.S.-based podcasting ecology as public media and then examines the threats to its future. It first identifies characteristics of a set of podcasts in the United States that allow them to be usefully described as public podcasting. Second, it looks at current business trends in podcasting as platformization proceeds. Third, it identifies threats to public podcasting’s current business practices. Finally, it analyzes responses within public podcasting to the potential threats. The article concludes that currently, the public podcast ecology in the United States maintains some immunity from the most immediate threats, but there are also underappreciated threats to it, both internally and externally. Keywords: podcasting, public media, platformization, business trends, public podcasting ecology As U.S. podcasting becomes a commercially viable part of the media landscape, are its public service functions at risk? This article explores that question, in the process postulating that the concept of public podcasting has utility in describing not only a range of podcasting practices, but also an ecology within the larger podcasting ecology—one that permits analysis of both business methods and social practices, and one that deserves attention and even protection. This analysis contributes to the burgeoning literature on Patricia Aufderheide: [email protected] David Lieberman: [email protected] Atika Alkhallouf: [email protected] Jiji Majiri Ugboma: [email protected] Date submitted: 2019‒09‒27 Copyright © 2020 (Patricia Aufderheide, David Lieberman, Atika Alkhallouf, and Jiji Majiri Ugboma).
