I think you know that anything helps, whether it is $5 or $10,000, and we have seen all denominations of money, both large and small, flowing in. We know that you understand that we will do what we have to do to make our goal. We’ll give you the information that you need to follow all the news which may go a long way toward determining whether we have a democracy after the Trump administration. We re- ally have no idea what will break next, but we have the Photo by Eric Korenman responsibility to bring it to you. The big BUT, of course, is that we can’t go forward unless we have the basic money Here comes the Fund Drive. It’s where we live and I mean to keep the place running.

You keep writing that to us. We keep breaking boat who yells at the top of his voice, “Pull!” I’m yelling records in our fund drives. and I’m yelling loudly because I know and you know that we HAVE to do it. I confess that I love our fund drives. They offer us a chance to get together and share our stories. But We invented the ”locked box” to make sure that we considering the gravity of the times in which we live, it wouldn’t have to spend huge amounts of time on the air really is essential that we move forward as fast as raising money. It has been a big success. Last time out, possible. Listeners by the hundreds understand this and we raised over $700,000 in a few short weeks and then are self-motivated to give. Of course, we will tell the sto- had what amounted to a one day (and a few hours) fund ries; the history of the station; how we got started; all the drive. challenges that we have faced and all that we face now.

The people who listen to “I’ll give you $10,000 to use as a challenge,” the money this radio station depend on us to bring them the news comes pouring in. It’s not for everyone but some people and we have done just that. We aired the House of can do it and for that we are very grateful.

Indeed, they demanded that a great deal of the process took place late at night and in the wee hours of the morning. Much of our coverage depends on National Public Radio – we pay them a fortune for this. Most people don’t know that NPR belongs to its member stations and not the other way around, but it costs big time. We are talking about many hundreds of thousands of dollars. Fortunately, however, I have noticed that people, on their own and without prompting, have been sending money to the station to keep it going. 2 WAMC PROGRAM GUIDE FEBRUARY 2020 3 PROGRAM NOTES TINA RENICK leader at the forefront of interdisciplinary learning and Forest fires, earthquakes and the impeachment of the President of the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn.

  • As General Managers of Public Radio Stations That Serve Millions of Americans in Communities Large and Small, Urban and Rural And;
    As General Managers of Public Radio stations that serve millions of Americans in communities large and small, urban and rural and; As Producers of local, regional and national content aired by stations throughout the nation committed to telling the evolving story of America, its proud history, and its committed citizens; We are writing to express our grave concern regarding the House legislation that would prohibit stations from using any Federal funds to pay for national programming and would eliminate CPB’s Program Fund. By prohibiting the use of Federal funds in any national programming, and in particular, by eliminating the CPB Program Fund, millions of Americans will be deprived of critical national and international news, information and cultural programming that cannot be found elsewhere. Local public radio stations will no longer reliably provide the community information and context so necessary to cities and towns challenged by change and faltering economies. Institutions and projects at risk include: - Radio Bilingüe’s national program service, public radio’s principal source of Latino programming - Koahnik Public Media’ Native Voice 1, public radio’s principal source of Native American programming - Youth Media, the California-based media network of young audio and video producers and a key source of a youth voice in the mass media - The Public Insight Network, American Public media’s expanding project to bring citizen experts into public radio journalism - Independent producers who depend upon the Program Fund for money to support production of series such as StoryCorps and This I Believe - Independent organizations dedicated to innovation, training, and excellence in journalism such as the Public Radio Exchange and the Association of Independents in Radio.

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.
