  • 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.

Today’s public media system reaches nearly 99 percent of the U.S. population with free programming and services. The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) supports 406 grantees, representing 1,168 public radio stations and 160 grantees representing 355 public television stations. These independently owned and operated local public television and radio stations are each licensed by the Federal Communications Commission and are overseen by a local community board. Public media creates and distributes content that is for, by and about Americans of all diverse backgrounds; and services that foster dialogue between the American people and the stations that serve them. In addition to providing free high-quality, educational programming for children, arts, and award-winning current affairs programming, public media stations provide life-saving emergency alert services.

CPB/Public Media Newsletter Harrison, Patricia <[email protected]> Wed 3/25/2020 1:50 PM From Pat Harrison, president & CEO, Corporation for Public Broadcasting: This is an unprecedented time for all Americans. A time when we are physically distancing ourselves from one another but staying connected as never before. Public media has become that vital connection. You are connecting to your communities from your homes to our homes. You are informing, educating, entertaining and giving us hope. It turns out the old adage is true: if you have seen one public media station – you have seen one public media station. Every day there are new stories about how each of you are finding innovative ways to serve your communities. You are not only keeping us informed with information we can trust and educating our children, you are keeping America safe. I was always proud of you guys, but now more than ever before. I am also proud of the partnership that CPB has with PBS, NPR, and APTS. We are in constant communication with each other and with station leaders in order to determine the best ways to help stations continue to provide essential services to the American public while ensuring the health and safety of all involved. Information, education, safety and inspiration. Thank you! Stations across America are stepping up to support their communities.
