Graham Old Dominion University, May 2001 Dissertation Chair: Dr. Maurice Berube In a relatively short history, Public Radio in Hampton Roads has emerged as a most important cultural and educational asset to the urban community. The dynamic growth of the Hampton Roads urban infrastructure is the result of several political, economic, and cultural factors. Public Radio has been one of these factors and has served as a catalyst for change and growth in the community. This case study focuses upon Public Radio stations WHRO-FM and WHRV-FM and the elements which brought about their historical development. The study presents a history of events that marked the beginning of Public Radio in Hampton Roads. Through reliance on oral histories, media accounts, and other documented sources, a record emerges. Subsequent analysis also points to the impact of Public Radio in development of cultural institutions within the Hampton Roads community. Current research indicates that the nurturing of the arts has a dramatic impact upon development of urban communities. Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission. This study identifies significant elements which brought about the sudden and dramatic growth of Hampton Roads Public Radio. The study also provides a basis for understanding the dynamics of cultural forces in an urban community. The analysis examines not only the development of two community based radio stations, but also a model that emerges when cultural and economic forces combine to create a vital regional endeavor. Five research questions emerged from the study. The study concludes with several findings, including: 1. WHRO-FM and WHRV-FM are model Public Broadcasting entities and provide a key resource for urban community development. 2. WHRO-FM and WHRV-FM provide urban amplification of issues by broadcasting news and public affairs programs which are significant to the Hampton Roads region. 3. Public Radio stations WHRO-FM and WHRV-FM have had a dramatic impact upon the growth and emergence of cultural arts related functions in the Hampton Roads region. 4. Public Radio stations WHRO-FM and WHRV-FM extend educational offerings to the region through a number of public affairs programs. Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

Great appreciation and acknowledgment is given to my Dissertation Committee; Dr. Raymond Jones and Dr. Dwight Allen. Special acknowledgment given to my Chairman and friend, Dr. Maurice Berube, who I swear I must have been in a former l i f e . Grateful acknowledgment is also given to Dr. Van Spiva, former Dean of the Old Dominion University School of Education and to Dr. Robert A. Magoon, former Professor of Education, Old Dominion University. Both had a tremendous impact upon my undergraduate and graduate work at ODU. Many individuals connected with Public Radio in the Tidewater region also contributed invaluable time and resources to help me fulfill this study. Dr. Forrest "Pat" Clay gave me time, materials, and direction that could not have come from any other source. His dedication to the cause of "good music" and Public Radio in Tidewater is an inspiration every time a Mozart Concerto is heard or an NPR program airs. He deserves more than simple mention in this work and much from Public Radio aficionados. Norman Willcox, Betty Vickers, Chris Astle, John Morison, Betty Luse, Rollie Bristol, and Neal Murray helped me to fill in the gaps of information between WHRO-FM, WHRV-FM, WRVC-FM and WTGM-FM. Long before I began this project, Bill Massie began to weave ii Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission. the story of WTGM-FM and WRVC-FM to me. I still long to hear his voice come over my radio. Several individuals also contributed greatly to my twenty some year odyssey of higher education: Mr. George Rhudy, History Teacher at Norview High School, Lisa Murray, Vianne Webb, and my supportive art show committee-Millie, Carolyn, Carol, Dave, Laura, and Tim. Deep thanks given to Andrea Berendt, Jackie McCartey, Rick Jennings, Randy Hobbs, Earl Watkins, and Daryl Vaught, who grilled me incessantly to get me through the candidacy exam. Deep gratitude is also given to Carolyn Banks who worked wonders on her computer to help tidy up my typing errors. Great appreciation is also given to my colleagues at Kempsville High School, especially Nancy Bowles, and Principal Dr. Louis O. Tonelson, who Supported me during this grueling process. Ultimately, I owe my deepest gratitude to my family and friends who daily provide me with the emotional support necessary for such an undertaking as two jobs and graduate school. My very best friends, Susie Waugh, Tom Karan, and Leonora Reiley have always convinced me that normalcy has no place in this world. My family, whose endurance of my many pursuits is truly worthy of praise: my brother Bob, who I think is the bravest person in the world; my sister-in-law Becky, who kept Bob with us far longer than any of us had dared to hope; my iii Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission. sister Andrea, my brother-in-law Ski, and my "kids" Jennifer, Tucker, Melissa, and Christopher, are the backbone of support which kept me going when I had lost faith in ever finishing this project. Ultimately, my Mother and Father deserve every accolade and word of praise for any of my accomplishments. Everything I've ever achieved in life is due to their belief in me. Finally, I offer the following promise to my family, friends, and especially to Tom: I will never go to graduate school again! iv Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

  • Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage
    Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage Aaron Joseph Johnson Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Aaron Joseph Johnson All rights reserved ABSTRACT Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage Aaron Joseph Johnson This dissertation is a study of jazz on American radio. The dissertation's meta-subjects are mediation, classification, and patronage in the presentation of music via distribution channels capable of reaching widespread audiences. The dissertation also addresses questions of race in the representation of jazz on radio. A central claim of the dissertation is that a given direction in jazz radio programming reflects the ideological, aesthetic, and political imperatives of a given broadcasting entity. I further argue that this ideological deployment of jazz can appear as conservative or progressive programming philosophies, and that these tendencies reflect discursive struggles over the identity of jazz. The first chapter, "Jazz on Noncommercial Radio," describes in some detail the current (circa 2013) taxonomy of American jazz radio. The remaining chapters are case studies of different aspects of jazz radio in the United States. Chapter 2, "Jazz is on the Left End of the Dial," presents considerable detail to the way the music is positioned on specific noncommercial stations. Chapter 3, "Duke Ellington and Radio," uses Ellington's multifaceted radio career (1925-1953) as radio bandleader, radio celebrity, and celebrity DJ to examine the medium's shifting relationship with jazz and black American creative ambition.

INTRODUCTION T HERE EXIST IN THIS NATION TWO TRADITIONS of freedom of expression: "that of the written and spoken word and that of the broadcast word."' The contrast between these two traditions is extraordinary. The first has its 2 roots in the historic rejection of administrative licensing of the written word and the popular repudiation of the Alien and Sedition Act of 1798.3 This tradition regards prior restraints as virtually verboten4 and all governmental regulation of the content of expression as inherently suspect.5 In short, here freedom of speech is the rule and governmental regulation is an exception to be jealously confined within narrow, judicially defined, limits.
