For more than two decades, NPR's Morning Edition has prepared listeners for the day ahead with up-to-the-minute news, background analysis, commentary, and coverage of arts and sports. Morning Edition – with hosts Renee Montagne and Steve Inskeep - draws public radio's largest audience, airing locally between 5 and 9 am daily. Many listeners wind down their weekday with All Things Considered, broadcast from 3 to 7 pm on WNIJ. NPR’s longest-running production continues today with hosts Robert Siegel, Michele Norris, and Melissa Block presenting the program's trademark mix of news, interviews, commentaries, reviews and offbeat features. And WNIJ listeners don’t tune out once the weekend arrives… As it happens, “appointment listening” to 89.5-WNIJ remains high on the weekends! Lots of people plan their days around being able to hear Car Talk uninterrupted. They take the News Quiz along with the panelists on Wait, Wait… Don’t Tell Me. And Garrison Keillor’s iconic variety program, A Prairie Home Companion, exemplifies what radio does best: enlighten and entertain through stories, music, and humor. In fact, two of the most popular programs on the WNIJ schedule - Car Talk and A Prairie Home Companion - air on both Saturdays and Sundays to accommodate as many interested ears as possible. “Listen Live” at www.wniu.org WNIU is the area’s only full-service, non-commercial classical music station. Tune in for beautiful, timeless classical music, broadcast 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Special Features: * The Writer’s Almanac – with Garrison Keillor, 11:00am * Metropolitan Opera – Saturdays,12:30 to 4 pm [In season, December through April] * Sunday Baroque – Sundays 7-10 am Spotlights composers such as Bach, Vivaldi, and Handel - cornerstones of the pre-1750 Baroque era * Rockford Symphony Orchestra – Mondays, T.B.A. Recent RSO concerts are replayed on select Monday evenings throughout the symphony season .

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.
