Christopher Everett 612.508.3191 [email protected] Annual Report 2012 The year of the future. BACK OUTSIDE COVER FRONT OUTSIDE COVER PRI 2012 Annual Report Mechanical 11” x 8.375” folded to 5.5” x 8.375” Dear Friends of PRI, Throughout our history, PRI has distinguished itself as a nimble Prepared by See Design, Inc. organization, able to anticipate and respond to the needs of stations Christopher Everett and audiences as we fulfill our mission: to serve as a distinct content 612.508.3191 source of information, insights and cultural experiences essential to [email protected] living in an interconnected world. This experience served us well in the year just closed, as we saw the pace of change in media accelerate, and faced new challenges as a result. More and more, people are turning to mobile devices to consume news, using them to share, to interact, and to learn even more. These new consumer expectations require that we respond, inspiring us to continue to deliver our unique stories in ways that touch the heart and mind. And to deliver them not only through radio, but also on new platforms. Technology also creates a more competitive environment, enabling access to global news and cultural content that did not exist before. In this environment, PRI worked to provide value to people curious about our world and their place in it. With a robust portfolio of content as a strong foundation for growth, PRI worked to enhance our role as a source of diverse perspectives. We expanded our relationship with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) and identified new voices for broadcast. We built upon our existing distribution and technology expertise to make our content available on new platforms, allowing people to engage more deeply with the stories they heard. We contributed our skills in engagement and social media to the State Integrity Investigation, inspiring the public to become more invested in effective state government. We also looked at new ways of collaborating so we could increase our effectiveness in creating and distributing content. As a result, we developed a stronger partnership with WGBH, one of PRI’s founders and long-time production partner at “PRI’s The World®.” This partnership, finalized in early FY13, gives us access to new skills and insights that will enable us to create more content, and reach more people in more ways as we look forward to the future. Our many partners – including producers, stations, donors, talent, sponsors and, most importantly, audiences – are a source of constant encouragement in this changing world. Thank you for your continuing support. Sincerely, Alisa A. Miller 01{ 2012 INSIDE FRONT COVER PRI 2012 Annual Report Mechanical This future is here. 11” x 8.375” folded to 5.5” x 8.375” Like it or not, it’s been here for a Prepared by See Design, Inc.

  • TAL Distribution Press Release
    This American Life Moves to Self-Distribute Program Partners with PRX to Deliver Episodes to Public Radio Stations May 28, 2014 – Chicago. Starting July 1, 2014, Chicago Public Media and Ira Glass will start independently distributing the public radio show This American Life to over 500 public radio stations. Episodes will be delivered to radio stations by PRX, The Public Radio Exchange. Since 1997, the show has been distributed by Public Radio International. “We’re excited and proud to be partners now with PRX,” said Glass. “They’ve been a huge innovative force in public radio, inventing technologies and projects to get people on the air who’d have a much harder time without them. They’re mission- driven, they’re super-capable and apparently they’re pretty good with computers.” “We are huge fans of This American Life and are thrilled to support their move to self-distribution on our platform,” said Jake Shapiro, CEO of PRX. “We’ve had the privilege of working closely with Ira and team to develop This American Life’s successful mobile apps, and are honored to expand our partnership to the flagship broadcast.” This American Life will take over other operations that were previously handled by PRI, including selling underwriting and marketing the show to stations. The marketing and station relations work will return to Marge Ostroushko, who did the job back before This American Life began distribution with PRI. This American Life, produced by Chicago Public Media and hosted by Ira Glass, is heard weekly by 2.2 million people over the radio.

  • Public Radio Classical Audience January 2017
    Public Radio Classical Audience January 2017 Background & Executive Summary § On behalf of the Classical Music Rising project Scott Williams approached NPR to assess what NPR Audience Insights has learned from classical music stations in PPM markets that might apply to all markets. § Using a Mon-Sun 6a-7p schedule, we identified 26 stations whose schedules consist at least 90% of classical music programming in PPM markets and 113 stations in diary metro markets. § Classical music stations in PPM markets… § comprise a larger percentage of listening § Have seen significant growth in listening since 2012; the growth spans from 6a to midnight § These stations have experienced double digit percentage growth in cume and AQH since Spring 2012 across each major daypart (morning, midday, afternoon and evenings) § In terms of percent growth, the largest increases occurred in the MF 3p-7p daypart: (cume 16% and AQH 35%) § Diary market stations … § Have not seen dramatic listening growth. We see a slight bump between 2p and 7p § Have experienced a similar growth in cume listeners, but AQH growth is considerably more modest, and has been flat in the morning daypart and nearly flat in the midday. § Time spent listening in PPM markets has grown over the past year, while it has declined in diary markets. That said, TSL is greater in diary markets, as one might expect using a diary methodology. § Percent of audience that is P1 has remained fairly consistent in PPM and diary markets § Listening to classical music stations in PPM and diary markets is growing in the 65+ demo. § I would be hesitant to draw any listening conclusions in diary markets, given the vastly different AQH measures.

Public Broadcasting of Colorado, Inc.

When PBC receives inquiries from people interested in broadcasting employment opportunities, in addition to responding to their inquiries, PBC may direct them to these websites to help provide additional information that may be responsive to their questions. In addition to the above, all positions are posted on the Colorado Public Radio website which currently gets about 30,000 hits/month, as well as the National Public Radio website which gets millions of hits/month.

  • This Version Has the Raw Data in an Appendix)
    Accepted for publication in 2020 by the International Journal of Communication, ijoc.org (this version has the raw data in an appendix) 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 U.S. 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. It concludes that currently, the public podcast ecology in the U.S. maintains some immunity from the most immediate threats, but that as well there are underappreciated threats to it both internally and externally. Keywords: podcasting, public media, platformization, business trends, public podcasting ecology As U.S. podcasting becomes an increasingly 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 an ecology within the larger podcasting ecology—one that permits analysis of both business methods and social practices, one that deserves attention and even protection. This analysis contributes to the burgeoning literature on podcasting by enabling focused research in this area, permitting analysis of the sector in ways that permit thinking about the relationship of mission and business practice sector-wide.
