    THE RADIO BOOK ReThink Media’s guide to the public affairs programs you need to know 2016 Edition The Radio Book ReThink Media’s guide to the public affairs programs you need to know 2016 - First Edition The research for this book was undertaken by ReThink Media staff, fellows, and interns between 2013 and 2015. Although we made every effort to speak directly with a producer of each show we list, we were not always successful. The “Features” tags included with many entries are complete to the best of our abilities—but some shows lack them when we could not be sure of a feature. Similarly, pitching intel is available for shows with which we were able to make contact. We would like to acknowledge Alyssa Goard, Katherine O’Brien, Daniel Steiner, and Lisa Bergstrom, who each had a big hand in bringing this project to completion.
