  • 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.

    Kevin M. Rampe Downtown-Lower Manhattan Association Annual Breakfast March 17, 2004 Thank you Bob. I would first like to recognize the leadership of both the Downtown Alliance and the Downtown- Lower Manhattan Association --you have been true partners in the rebirth of Lower Manhattan. I am here to tell you today that Lower Manhattan’s future is brighter then ever. In less than a decade, the World Trade Center site will be home to the world’s tallest building, a world-class cultural center, a powerful memorial, and a triumphant transportation hub. Lower Manhattan remains the world’s financial capital and will soon be a model 21st century central business district. On the World Trade Center Site, the way is clear – weeks ago, on the one-year anniversary --to the day-- of the selection of the Master Site plan, we put into place the last piece of that plan by acquiring the Deutsche Bank property at 130 Liberty Street. The LMDC will purchase the land and bring down the building--removing this blight on Lower Manhattan’s storied skyline. And we will not just do this expeditiously, in 5-7 months, but with sensitivity to the environment and surrounding community. To accomplish this goal, we saw that the spirit of public service that was so prevalent in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks is still alive when the man who brokered the Northern Ireland peace accord agreed to step in at Ground Zero when an insurance dispute threatened the pace of our progress. We owe a debt of gratitude to Senator George Mitchell and all of the parties for working together to bring closure to the Deutsche Bank issue.

    November 9, 2020, Issue 730 Finding Life Beyond Radio As companies continue furloughs and staff reductions, radio pros may be considering a career change or wondering if their skills and experience can translate to other industries. Moving from one market or station to another may be common in radio, but leaving the industry entirely can be a difficult and emotional leap, asCountry Aircheck learns from three industry vets.
