    800.275.2840 MORE NEWS» insideradio.com THE MOST TRUSTED NEWS IN RADIO TUESDAY, APRIL 28, 2015 Programmatic: it’s all about the data. Technology that combines rich audience data and computer algorithms to make smarter advertising decisions is coming to a radio dial near you. Broadcasters and agencies are laying the foundation for a programmatic system where audience behavioral data would flow into a data management platform to enable targeting beyond old school age and gender demos. Pulled by advertisers accustomed to digital buying practices, agencies say clients want to apply programmatic across more of their media buys. “Clients are starting to say, ‘Who can do programmatic, where can I get the insights,’” says OMD U.S. director Natalie Swed Stone. “If radio can’t do it soon enough, some of that money will go to the digital audio piece.” A new private ad exchange is expected from iHeartMedia in the coming months, followed in 2016 by Katz Media Group’s programmatic Expressway initiative for all of its industry clients. Both are being built on an infrastructure developed by tech company Jelli, which has already attracted Entercom, Emmis, Townsquare Media and Digity Media to its automated buying platform. “We’re going to get there in stages,” Swed Stone says. “You start with the software and the system to transact and then start layering in the targeting and insights so you can segment it out to serve the right ad to the right person at the right moment.” Programmatic could help elevate radio and level the media playing field, agencies say.

Conclusion 27 Citations 31 Tow Center for Digital Journalism Executive Summary Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania has a reputation as one of the most livable cities in the nation. This piece, however, argues that reporters of color working within the Pittsburgh media ecosystem have a much lesser quality of life both inside and outside of the newsroom. Previous studies related to diversity and inclusion within Pittsburgh’s media ecosystem highlighted two issues. First, Pittsburgh news media ​over-represents African Americans as a criminals​. Additionally, newsrooms in the area are ​woefully underrepresented​ in terms of diversity. Based on a series of 20 interviews with journalists who are currently or have worked within the Pittsburgh news media — including 16 who identify as individuals of color — this goes beyond numbers, and gains insights on issues of diversity and inclusion directly from newsroom workers, and documents a number of concerns journalists of color have about their working conditions within the Pittsburgh media ecosystem. Within the newsroom, journalists noted the following problems as it pertained to their work experience: ● Journalists interviewed expressed the belief that newsrooms in Pittsburgh could do a much better job of coverage and engaging the area’s African American community.

  • Answering God's Call in a Broken World
    PANORAMA Pittsburgh Theological Seminary Vol. LVII Spring 2020 ANSWERING GOD’S CALL IN A BROKEN WORLD NOTE FROM THE EDITOR s you can imagine, pulling together a Amagazine of this length and caliber takes months. Last fall the Advancement staff were discussing how important it is for our students to prepare to serve the world as it is, not the world as they wish it could be. That conversation led to this issue’s theme, Answering God’s Call in a Broken World. Little did we know at the time that in just a few months the Seminary, state, country, and world would forever change because of the spread of COVID-19. As I write this note in mid-March, Pittsburgh Seminary students are learning online, and I, along with the faculty and other staff, am working from my home. I certainly do not know to what extent our lives will change between now and the time you receive this publication. But as we all adjust to our “new normal,” I encourage you to remember the words of one of my favorite contemporary Christian songs, Go Light Your Candle, written by Chris Rice: “Seek out the lonely, the tired and worn / Hold out your candle for all to see it / Take your candle, and go light your world.” May we all find ways to bring the light of Christ to these frequently dark days. Melissa Logan Managing Editor P.S. For helpful and encouraging resources in dealing with practical and spiritual materials related to the COVID-19 outbreak, or to make a special gift toward sustaining our students during this crisis, see the Seminary’s website.
