How Reliable Is Wisconsin Polling? October 2020 C. Dukeheart & L. Fuhrmann/Wisconsin Watch On Air & Online How Reliable Is Wisconsin Polling? While nationwide polling was largely accurate in the 2016 presidential election, statewide polls overlooked many Wisconsinites who came out to vote for Trump. His victory here surprised those who had relied on the forecasting. Whether it’s accounting for the “shy” voter or weighting for education, polling in Wisconsin is being done differently in 2020. WPR’s Capitol Reporter Laurel White explains in this addition to our series Swing State: Stories of a Divided Wisconsin. Pictured: Voters stand in a blocks-long line in Milwaukee on April 7, 2020, during the primary election. S. Silbiger/Getty Images Catch NPR's Special Series: Secure Your Vote In this turbulent election season, key legal fights about ballot collection, voter registration, and deadlines remain unresolved even as we get closer to Election Day. Tune into NPR’s special series Election 2020: Secure Your Vote to keep up with shifting rulings in battleground states. But if you'd rather focus on something else right now, listen to the Press Pause playlist of new songs picked by NPR music staff, updated daily. Photo courtesy of J. Øverby Behind The Scenes Journey To Understanding On "The Road To Higher Ground" Dr. Jonathan Øverby has produced “The Road to Higher Ground” on WPR since 2007, playing “world music with African roots and more.” You’ll hear songs from many African traditions, and music from the African diaspora, but the way he brings the “and more” to his listeners is what makes “Higher Ground” different from other world music shows. “I’m always thinking how to bridge the next piece with the piece before it and spool everything musically. I link pieces so that they create a musical topography,” Øverby explains. “The Road to Higher Ground” takes listeners on a journey designed to increase empathy and understanding. Øverby has won multiple honors and awards, and has been invited to speak at musicology conferences around the world. He’s also WPR’s only Black executive producer. Tune into “The Road to Higher Ground” on WPR's NPR News & Music stations at 5 p.m. on Saturdays (except for in Milwaukee, where it starts at 7 p.m. on 90.7 FM). Øverby hopes more listeners will find his show in this new time slot, and that they’ll be drawn in by his wide-ranging palette. Read more about Øverby’s roots and musical journey here.

  • 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.

It is the right of the public to be informed, rather than any right on the part of the Government, any broadcast licensee or any individual member of the public to broadcast his own particular views on any matter, which is the foundation stone of the American system of broadcasting.1 INTRODUCTION Public funding for National Public Radio (“NPR”) has come under fire, yet again.

Science Friday will continue to be heard each Friday at 1 p.m. "Listeners who enjoyed The Kathleen Dunn Show will find 1A covers similar topics with a familiar in- depth approach,” said Sheryl Gasser, Program Director of The Ideas Network. “Joshua leans into topics like health care, immigration, science and pop culture in a way that is compelling and informative. We're excited to have his voice in Wisconsin." With a name inspired by the First Amendment, 1A explores the politics, technology and pop culture that connect and divide America today. Listeners can expect a mix of several segments in each hour while staying close to the news of the day. 1A is produced by WAMU in Washington, D.C. and distributed by NPR. “If it wasn't for Wisconsin, there might not be a ‘public radio’. We owe your state a lot!,” host Joshua Johnson said, referring to WPR’s centennial legacy as the oldest public radio station in the nation. “Hopefully 1A helps repay that debt with the kind of engaging, compelling and meaningful conversations you helped invent.” Johnson’s professional background has him well prepared to host 1A.
