    Audio Today a Focus on African American & Hispanic Audiences April 2014

    STATE OF THE MEDIA: AUDIO TODAY A FOCUS ON AFRICAN AMERICAN & HISPANIC AUDIENCES APRIL 2014 STATE OF THE MEDIA: AUDIO TODAY Q2 Copyright © 2014 The Nielsen Company 1 GROWTH AND THE AUDIO LANDSCAPE NATIONAL AUDIENCE HITS ALL-TIME HIGH Growth is a popular word today in America, whether you’re talking about the stock market, entertainment choices, or census trends. Through it all, radio consumption continues to increase; nearly 92% of all Americans 12 or older are tuning to radio in an average week. That’s 244.4 million of us, a record high! 244 MILLION AMERICANS LISTEN TO RADIO EACH WEEK This growth is remarkable considering the variety and number of media choices available to consumers today over-the-air and online via smartphones, tablets, notebooks/desktop computers and digital dashboards. Radio’s hyper-local nature uniquely serves each market which keeps it tied strongly to our daily lives no matter how (or where) we tune in. The radio landscape is also a diverse community of listeners from every corner of America, who reflect the same population trends of the country as a whole. Radio is one of the original mass mediums and as the U.S. population grows and the makeup of our citizens change, radio audiences follow suit. Alongside the national growth headline, both African American and Hispanic audiences have also reached a historic high with more than 71 million tuning in each week.

Organizations can use mass media outlets to change social conditions and encourage political and social intervention. When working with the media, advocates should ‘shape’ their story to incorporate social themes rather than solely focusing on individual accountability. “Develop a story that personalizes the injustice and then provide a clear picture of who is benefiting from the condition.” (Wallack et al., 1999) Merely stating that there is a problem provides no ‘call to action’ for the public. Therefore, advocates should identify a specific solution that would allow communities to take control of the issue. Sexual violence is a public health concern of social injustices. Effective Media Campaigns Local, regional or statewide campaigns can provide a forum for prevention, outreach and raising awareness to create social change. This toolkit will enhance advocates’ abilities to utilize the media for campaigns and other events. Campaigns can include: public service announcements (PSAs), awareness events (Take Back the Night; The Clothesline Project), media interviews, coordinated events at area schools or college campuses, position papers, etc.
