    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.

    KUNI/KHKE: FY18 Annual Local Content and Services Report 1 | P a g e 1. Describe your overall goals and approach to address identified community issues, needs, and interests through your station’s vital local services, such as multiplatform long and short-form content, digital and in-person engagement, education services, community information, partnership support, and other activities, and audiences you reached or new audiences you engaged. KUNI/KHKE, a member station of the statewide network of Iowa Public Radio, has identified five community issues, needs and interests, which are directly related to the core part of its mission statement, “enriching the civic and cultural life in Iowa through high quality news and cultural programming.” These five topics reflect the needs of both KUNI/KHKE’s immediate community, which is Central Iowa, and its expanded community, which is the state of Iowa. These topics, which guide KUNI/KHKE’s reporting and cultural coverage, are: politics & government, health & education, arts & culture, agriculture & environment, and research & science. KUNI/KHKE’s News staff meets daily to review breaking, ongoing, and upcoming news and cultural stories. During this meeting, news reporting assignments and decisions are made based on the five community issues, including how the information is best communicated to listeners. The staff provides content both on-air and online, which provides at a minimum the information shared on-air. Photos and video footage is provided online as well. KUNI/KHKE’s Music staff meets regularly to discuss and determine coverage for upcoming performances and cultural activities. Some of this coverage is provided on-air, including live broadcasts, while some is provided exclusively online, encouraging development of a diverse audience through both radio and online interaction.

A second survey of 18 networks sought to gather indepth information on network operation. Results showed that 22.2 percent of the stations surveyed were participating in program cooperatives, and over 79 percent felt that network participation would be beneficial. It was concluded that the cooperative program tape network should continue in order to fulfill specialized programing needs. A copy of the two questionnaires, the letter of transmittal, and the mailing list is appended. A list of the networks that participated in the study, 12 statistical tables, and a 20-item bibliography are included.
