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.

    STATE OF THE MEDIA: AUDIO TODAY A FOCUS ON PUBLIC RADIO DECEMBER 2014 STATE OF THE MEDIA: AUDIO TODAY Q4 Copyright © 2014 The Nielsen Company 1 THE ECLECTIC AUDIO LANDSCAPE In today’s fragmented media world, where consumers have more choices and more access to content than ever before, audio remains strong. 91.3% of all Americans (age 12+) are using radio during the week. Since the beginning of 2010, the national weekly radio audience has grown from 239.7 million to 243 million listeners tuning in across more than 250 local markets in every corner of the country. 243 MILLION AMERICANS LISTEN TO RADIO EACH WEEK In a time of changing habits and new digital platforms, radio’s consistent audience numbers are quite remarkable. With the holidays just around the corner, consumers will be turning to the radio to catch their favorite sounds of the season or stay in touch with what’s happening in their local community each day. PUBLIC RADIO OFFERS AN UNCOMMON MIX OF PROGRAMMING FOR 32 MILLION LISTENERS This year we have profiled the overall radio landscape, multicultural audiences and network radio listeners, and for our final report we turn our attention to Public Radio; the more than 900 rated stations which offer an eclectic mix of news, entertainment, music and cultural programming in markets large and small. Public Radio is a unique and relevant part of the lives of 32 million Americans and exists in large part due to the financial support of the listeners we examine in the following pages.

    TENNESSEE STATE GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION HIGHWAY SAFETY PERFORMANCE PLAN ANNUAL REPORT FEDERAL FISCAL YEAR 2012 “Our mission is to develop, execute, and evaluate programs to reduce the number of fatalities, injuries, and related economic losses resulting from traffic crashes on Tennessee roadways.” Governor’s Highway Safety Office James K. Polk Building, Suite 1800 505 Deaderick Street NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE 37243-0349 Phone: (615) 741-2589 Fax: (615) 253-5523 ARY 1 Executive Summary As the Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2012 Highway Safety Performance Plan was being planned and subsequently implemented, providing the most effective and safest highways was of importance. The State of Tennessee strived during the FFY 2011-12 to enhance its safety programs (education, enforcements, and emergency management services) to ensure highway safety. The funding levels in the basic 402 programs remained much the same for the FFY 2011-12. Uncertainty in the funding levels for specialized program areas required the Tennessee Governor’s Highway Safety Office (GHSO) to maintain a conservative budget approach throughout the year. Considering the high population growth rate in Tennessee, including minority populations, we implemented projects both in rural and urban areas throughout this very diverse state. The program areas we focused on included: Occupant Protection Impaired Driving Youth Drivers Police Traffic Services Traffic Records Motorcycle Safety Safe Communities Emergency Medical Services A total of 512 grant proposals (259 regular and 253 High Visibility) were received from state, local agencies and not-for-profit organizations. GHSO awarded 401 grants (67 standard Alcohol grants and 195 high visibility grants) to law enforcement and its other related agencies and entities.
