Most analyses of public radio listening examine the performance of individual stations within this large mix, the contributions of specific national programs, or aggregate numbers for the system as a whole. This report takes a different approach. Through an extensive, multi-year study of 228 stations that generate about 80% of public radio’s audience, we review patterns of listening to groups of stations categorized by the formats that they present. We find that stations that pursue different format strategies – news, classical, jazz, AAA, and the principal combinations of these – have experienced significantly different patterns of audience growth in recent years and important differences in key audience behaviors such as loyalty and time spent listening. This quantitative study complements qualitative research that the Station Resource Group, in partnership with Public Radio Program Directors, and others have pursued on the values and benefits listeners perceive in different formats and format combinations. Key findings of The Public Radio Format Study include: • In a time of relentless news cycles and a near abandonment of news by many commercial stations, public radio’s news and information stations have seen a 55% increase in their average audience from Spring 1999 to Fall 2004.

Horses, donkeys, and pedestrians compete with huge trucks, cars, motorcycles, rickshaws, and bicycles along the highway, a commercial route that is dotted with areas of activity right off the road: truck stops, farmer’s stands, bus stops, and all kinds of commercial activity.

  • Tribal Radio Stations As Key Community Informants and Sites of Resistance to Mainstream Media Narratives
    Tribal radio stations as key community informants and sites of resistance to mainstream media narratives Jana Wilbricht* University of Michigan, United States Abstract Rural US Indigenous communities are disproportionately affected by digital divides, insufficient infrastructures, and health disparities, so that community radio still represents a key medium in the lean mediascapes of these communities. The first US radio stations licensed to American Indian/Alaska Native tribes began broadcasting in 1971, about 50 years after the rise of rural radio in the US, which until then had almost entirely ignored Indigenous news, concerns, and voices. This paper draws on interview data from 2016 fieldwork conducted in Alaska and Arizona with two community radio stations serving the local, mostly Indigenous audience, to highlight how its historical ties to social activism continue to play a role in how tribal radio functions as a medium today. Tribal radio stations value not only traditional journalistic standards, but also advocacy for the community, combating stereotypes, and view themselves as distinct from mainstream and other community media. Keywords Tribal radio, Indigenous peoples, American Indians/Alaska Natives, community radio, Indigenous activism, social movements, Hopi, Yupik Introduction Community media, particularly radio, continue to play a central role in rural Indigenous communities in the United States (US). Not only are tribal lands in the US predominantly located in rural and remote areas, but as the Indigenous peoples of this continent, Native American and Alaska Native tribes have a unique and complex legal relationship with the US federal government, diverse and strong cultures, and a long history of colonialism, leading to the severe infrastructure injustice and health inequities affecting Indigenous communities today.

During this time period we undertook the following activities in compliance with the Prong 3 requirements of the FCC EEO Guidelines: June 1, 2016 – May 31, 2017 KNAU is defined as a small market radio station that is licensed to a community that is located in a metropolitan area that has a population of fewer than 250,000 persons.
