  • Media Announcement
    MEDIA ANNOUNCEMENT FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE BAY AREA RADIO HALL OF FAME ANNOUNCES FIRST CLASS OF HONOREES San Francisco (October 4, 2006) — The Bay Area Radio Museum is proud to announce the first group of inductees into the Bay Area Radio Hall of Fame. The selections were made following a year of study during which input from broadcast professionals, fans and historians was weighed to establish criteria and nominees for enshrinement. Among the first inductees are pioneers from the earliest period of local radio development nearly a century ago, as well as popular personalities from the modern era. Many of the names, such as Don Sherwood and Tom Donahue, may be instantly recognizable. Others, such as Colin B. Kennedy and Harrison Holliway, may be less so. In either case, it is hoped that the creation of the Hall of Fame will help to honor the men and women who have made Bay Area radio so popular over the years, and will make their names and accomplishments known for generations to come. For the near future, the Bay Area Radio Hall of Fame will exist primarily on the Internet at www.barhof.com, although a permanent exhibit is planned at the old KRE radio studios in Berkeley, which are being refurbished by the California Historical Radio Society (CHRS). The Bay Area Radio Hall of Fame is spearheaded by the Bay Area Radio Museum, which is an affiliate of the Broadcast & Newspaper Museum of Northern California consortium, which also includes CHRS and the Broadcast Legends. The radio museum was founded in 2005, and currently presents archival broadcast recordings, photographs, documents and historical essays on its website at www.bayarearadio.org.

  • Directory of California Ethnic Media, Which Lists Almost 300 News Outlets — Print, Broadcast, Digital — Across the State
    NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER Ethnic Media Services, founded in 2018 to sustain and build on the work of New America Media, is pleased to publish our Directory of California Ethnic Media, which lists almost 300 news outlets — print, broadcast, digital — across the state. We are grateful for the support of key partners including California Black Media, ImpreMedia, Hoopa Radio, and the Center for Community & Ethnic Media, in compiling this list. The Directory aims to expand access to the sector at a time when communicating with California’s diverse communities has become more urgent than ever amidst the rollout of the 2020 census, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the economic turmoil it has generated. This Directory is a work-in-progress — in today’s highly fluid media landscape, we will update the online information monthly. Thanks to support from the Complete Count Committee Office 2020 Census and several national funders, we were able to expand our research and discover ethnic media platforms we never knew existed: podcasts, radio stations, weeklies, online news sites serving newly settled immigrants and long-siloed ethnic groups. The takeaway from our daily interactions with the sector is that despite the collapse of the business model that has decimated all media, the ethnic news outlets are determined to survive to inform and advocate for their audiences. Some of those outlets have been in opera- tion for decades while others are much newer. Their resilience is inspiring. Their role in creating an inclusive communications infrastruc- ture for this state is indispensable. We look forward to replicating the California Directory with a national listing of our ethnic media partners later this year.

The actual affiliation fee is based on a station’s market share. Affiliates are not charged fees for the selection of WFMT Radio Network programs on the Public Radio Exchange (PRX). • The cost of our Beethoven and Jazz Network overnight services is based on a sliding scale, depending on the number of hours you use (the more hours you use, the lower the hourly rate). We also offer reduced Beethoven and Jazz Network rates for HD broadcast. Through PRX, you can schedule any hour of the Beethoven or Jazz Network throughout the day and the files are delivered a week in advance for maximum flexibility. We provide highly skilled technical support: • Programs are available through the Public Radio Exchange (PRX). PRX delivers files to you days in advance so you can schedule them for broadcast at your convenience. We provide technical support in conjunction with PRX to answer all your distribution questions. In cases of emergency or for use as an alternate distribution platform, we also offer an FTP (File Transfer Protocol), which is kept up to date with all of our series and specials. We keep you informed about our shows and help you promote them to your listeners: • Affiliates receive our quarterly Network Notebook with all our program offerings, and our regular online WFMT Radio Network Newsletter, with news updates, previews of upcoming shows and more.
