I always think back to the time when the US was involved in one of its foreign adventures. A local man walked into a tee shirt store in a mall and bought a shirt with the message “Peace on Earth” on it. Despite the fact that he bought the shirt right there in the mall, he was promptly arrested for breaking some kind of “no politics” law. That was the whole fund drive from the moment we learned about it. That serendipitous kind of thing happened a lot and we were all, once again, reminded about freedom of speech. I am reminded about a time when a nearby radio/tv conglomerate asked me to come over to pitch during their fund drive. I said yes and arrived and started to do Photo by Eric Korenman my own off the cuff thing. The director ran over to my and sternly said, “Dr. Chartock, we don’t do it that way here. We stay with script.” The script! Are you kidding? The fund drives are often referred to as FUN drives. There are many reasons why I love WAMC listeners and That’s when we can really cut loose. Well, they’re still in members. business doing it their way but we will never stop doing it our way. You all understand that WAMC really is a cooperative organization. We certainly don’t all agree on everything Sure, some people will take offense any time they can but when the crunch is on, when our continued existence at anything. Just catch me eating a bagel on the air and depends on everyone putting something into the pot, you outrage will follow. People can be strange that way. But do just that. As we open letters to the Roundtable Panel hey, despite the outrage they almost preface their note each day, there is inevitably a salutation along the lines with the provision that they give to the station. As Pete of, “I love the panel BUT...” What that means to me is that Seeger always said, “Take it easy, but take it.” we are family -- at least we act like my family did. That’s why when we made our first million-dollar goal, it took my And speaking of Pete Seeger, he was our extraordinary breath away. I’ll bet it took yours away, too. patron saint who I miss each and every day. Yes, that Pete who gave us his last concert shortly before he died We remember back to those times when it literally took us because, as he said, “I want to do something for the weeks to raise $100,000. It was both painful and joyful. station.” Pete will always be part of our collective memory Staff hung on to one another for emotional support and and history just as each and every one of you will be. we all showed up early in the morning, bleary eyed; it seemed like we never left the microphones. Then, as now, Thanks again. all kinds of people showed up with food and everyone seemed to know everyone else among the volunteers. It really was inspirational; it gave you faith that even though things looked hopeless at times, people could still get together and work miracles. We would play Pete Seeger and Ray Charles and even Kate Smith singing God Bless America, over and over again. We played The 2000 Year Old Man until the grooves on the record wore out (yes, it was a record), not to mention Tubby The Tuba with its terrific message for all: “Oh, Tubby, can I play that tune too?” At one point, we heard from the son of the Tubby creator who seemed to proud that his father was being honored by this radio station. That sure made my day. 2 WAMC PROGRAM GUIDE SEPTEMBER 2020 3 PROGRAM NOTES TINA RENICK This month we celebrate the American workforce, now The series has adapted to bring Americans together more than ever.

By prohibiting the use of Federal funds in any national programming, and in particular, by eliminating the CPB Program Fund, millions of Americans will be deprived of critical national and international news, information and cultural programming that cannot be found elsewhere.

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.

Specifically, MSW was tasked with studying the potential impacts to Public Radio Station Transmitter Facilities that may result from the TV Band Repack and associated DTV Station channel changes and facility modifications. Digital Television stations will be repacked to channels 2-36 after the completion of the FCC’s Incentive Auction. These channel changes are likely to impact some Public Radio stations that a share tower or are near-co-located with a television station. There are several possible impacts ranging from down-time during rigging and derigging operations to loss of tower space and possible relocation due to tower structural limits. The specific impact is highly dependent upon the specific tower situation as well as the new channel assigned to the co-located TV Station(s). A. Potentially Impacted Radio Stations MSW has conducted a study to determine the number of CPB Eligible Radio Stations that are co-located on the same tower as one or more TV Stations.
