  • THE FIRST FORTY YEARS INTRODUCTION by Susan Stamberg
    THE FIRST FORTY YEARS INTRODUCTION by Susan Stamberg Shiny little platters. Not even five inches across. How could they possibly contain the soundtrack of four decades? How could the phone calls, the encounters, the danger, the desperation, the exhilaration and big, big laughs from two score years be compressed onto a handful of CDs? If you’ve lived with NPR, as so many of us have for so many years, you’ll be astonished at how many of these reports and conversations and reveries you remember—or how many come back to you (like familiar songs) after hearing just a few seconds of sound. And you’ll be amazed by how much you’ve missed—loyal as you are, you were too busy that day, or too distracted, or out of town, or giving birth (guess that falls under the “too distracted” category). Many of you have integrated NPR into your daily lives; you feel personally connected with it. NPR has gotten you through some fairly dramatic moments. Not just important historical events, but personal moments as well. I’ve been told that a woman’s terror during a CAT scan was tamed by the voice of Ira Flatow on Science Friday being piped into the dreaded scanner tube. So much of life is here. War, from the horrors of Vietnam to the brutalities that evanescent medium—they came to life, then disappeared. Now, of Iraq. Politics, from the intrigue of Watergate to the drama of the Anita on these CDs, all the extraordinary people and places and sounds Hill-Clarence Thomas controversy.

  • Annual Report
    2008 ANNUAL REPORT wamu.org | Your NPR news station in the Nation’s Capital A Letter from the General Manager Against a backdrop of an explosion of personalized media, it is increasingly challenging for a single radio station to serve disparate listener interests. In FY 2008, we stepped up to this challenge at WAMU 88.5 through several bold changes. These were designed to provide the high-quality content our listeners appreciate, while also satisfying increasing expectations for specialized services that allow listeners to select exactly what they want to hear, when they want to hear it. As a pioneer in the use of HD Radio technology, WAMU 88.5 has been well positioned from the beginning to harness its multicasting potential. In the fall of 2007, we felt it was time to begin treating HD Radio as “real” radio by maximizing the content we offer on the additional frequencies within our existing position at 88.5 on the radio dial. Thus, for the first time in our 46-year history, WAMU 88.5 switched to a seven-day week of news, talk, and information on our main channel, WAMU 88.5-1 in HD. This allowed us to move our Sunday bluegrass music programming from just one shelf of inventory in a large store to a brand new storefront of its own at WAMU 88.5-2. WAMU’s Bluegrass Country, with its own distinct, robust, live-hosted programs, is among the first in the nation to offer live programming exclusively for HD Radio. In creating this sustainable service, WAMU 88.5 increased by 59% Caryn G.
