What would happen to the WTFDA as a club if suddenly the VUD stopped being published? Would it matter? Would you want to keep the WTFDA going without it, even if that meant a WTFDA in a different form? Here’s why I ask. In two short months I will turn 65. I have already retired from my technician job back in August of 2010. I have been publishing the VUD for you all for the past ten years. At some point I will stop. I can’t conceive of me publishing a paper VUD at age 70, or even 67. If I were ten years younger I would still be looking forward to doing the paper VUD, but not now. Find another publisher, you might say. Some might remember that I took this job because no one else wanted it back then and my gut feeling is that even more so, nobody is going to want to publish both a paper VUD and an eZine. I’ve already emailed the board about my future plans and they are supportive. Almost everyone who joins WTFDA now takes the eVUD. It's been around since Sept. 2001 and has about 90 happy readers. Preparing the eVUD takes considerably less time each month than preparing the paper edition. I can continue publishing the eVUD as long as I stay healthy (you never know). But if I’m unable to do it for some reason, the information will be available on the WTFDA Forum site. So effective immediately, I will no longer take NEW subscriptions for the paper VUD. The paper VUD is no longer an option for new members or re-joiners. Membership forms now reflect that change. I will return any $24 checks I receive for new memberships and/or contact them about taking the eVUD instead. WTFDA members who now receive the paper VUD will continue to receive the paper VUD until a time to be determined (12-18 months?). For members who, for one reason or another, have no access to a computer and internet, we will continue to mail you a printed edition. I would ask WTFDA members who are online (and that’s all but about 40 of you) to please voluntarily change over to the eVUD at renewal time to help make this transition easier. Many of you already read both versions so switching should not be a problem. The WTFDA Forums (wtfda.info) have just been upgraded to vBulletin 4.13 and ought to be more than just discussion forums. The Forums should be WTFDA HQ. The Members Area of the Forums is perfect for that purpose. The Members Area is ideal for WTFDA members interacting with each other, receiving news from the BoD and column editors, preparing your reports and reading your eVUD. You can now enter IRC Chat from the Forums. Give Us Your Input! 1.Does the WTFDA really need a paper publication? Yes( ) No( ) 2.Would a Forum site, website, eVUD and email list be of enough value to keep you as a dues paying WTFDA member? Yes( ) No( ) 3.Would a Forum site, website and email list be of enough value to keep you as a dues paying WTFDA member? Yes( ) No( ) 4.Have you visited the WTFDA Forums (wtfda.info)at least once in the past three months? Yes( ) No( ) 5.Do you ever visit the WTFDA Website (wtfda.org)? Yes( ) No( ) If you checked no on #4 or #5, please explain briefly _________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________ The future of the WTFDA is up to you, not me. I’ve done my share the past ten years to help keep it going but it’s you folks who will ultimately determine its fate. Perhaps somebody will emerge to keep publishing the paper VUD. But right now we cannot count on that happening. Take our survey. Mail it back to PO Box 501 OR email your answers to the BOD or better yet, register at the WTFDA Forums and post your thoughts in the Members Area (I will also try to have this survey available there). We will print all comments in the VUD/eVUD. Please email any (or all) of the BoD. Tell us what you think. Please do it because apathy will also tell us volumes about the condition of the club. Don’t rely on somebody else to do it. We need to hear from you. Thanks for reading. 3 P.O. Box 501, Somersville, CT USA 06072 MIKE BUGAJ [email protected] IS IT SPRING YET?

  • Gender on the Billboard Hot Country Songs Chart, 1996-2016
    Watson. Manuscript. Gender on the Billboard Hot Country Songs Chart, 1996-2016 Jada Watson (University of Ottawa) [email protected] In May 2015 radio consultant Keith Hill revealed that country radio programmers have strict rules on how many female artists can be included in airplay rotation. Referring to females as the “tomatoes” of the country salad, Hill’s remarks have sparked debate about gender-representation in country music. This paper examines gender-related trends on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart between 1996 and 2016, aiming to investigate how female artists have performed on the charts over this two-decade period. Analyzing long-term trends in frequency distribution, this study uses statistical results to unpack assertions made about women’s marginal status in country music. Keywords: country music; gender; Billboard charts; radio Introduction: #TomatoGate In a 26 May 2015 interview with Russ Penuell of Country AirCheck on the subject of country radio scheduling and ratings, consultant Keith Hill spoke candidly about how female artists factor into the format’s airplay rotation: If you want to make ratings in Country radio, take females out. The reason is mainstream Country radio generates more quarter hours from female listeners at a rate of 70 to 75%, and women like male artists. I’m basing that not only on music tests from over the years, but more than 300 client radio stations. The expectation is we’re principally a male format with a smaller female component. I’ve got about 40 music databases in front of me and the percentage of females in the one with the most is 19%.
