Book Description
Although television is now dominant, radio surprisingly remains a medium of unparalleled power and importance. Worldwide, it continues to be the communications vehicle with the greatest outreach and impact. Every indicator - economic, demographic, social, and democratic - suggests that far from fading away, radio is returning to our consciousness, and back into the cultural mainstream.Marilyn J. Matelski reviews radio's glory days, arguing that the glory is not all in the past. B. Eric Rhoads continues Matelski's thoughts by explaining how and why radio has kept its vitality. The political history of radio is reviewed by Michael X. Delli Carpini, while David Bartlett shows how one of radio's prime functions has been to serve the public in time of disaster. Other contributors discuss radio as a cultural expression; the global airwaves; and the economic, regulatory, social, and technological structures of radio.Collectively, the contributors provide an intriguing study into the rich history of radio, and its impact on many areas of society. It provides a wealth of information for historians, sociologists, and communications and media scholars. Above all, it helps explain how media intersect, change focus, but still manage to survive and grow in a commercial environment.

It gives radio practitioners inspiration for production and archiving and offers scholars from many disciplines new ways to incorporate radio's vital voices into work on transnational institutions, communities, histories, and identities.

Contemporary Radio Programming Strategies

Pages : 211
Book Description
Contemporary Radio Programming Strategies deals with music radio as it is today, yet reflects the legacy of the '50s and '60s pioneers who changed the medium from a program-based to a station format orientation. The main concern of the book is to arrive at a set of fundamental beliefs about the values and realities of the radio business in regard to entertainment programming in order to provide a basis for developing programming strategies. Rather than describe the formats and programming that already exist, it asks the question: "What do listeners really want from radio?" and adopts the functionalist viewpoint that a medium is best defined by how people use it. The book employs a heuristic approach to explore possibilities and relationships regarding the development of innovative programming strategies and includes, after each chapter, a list of the major points summarizing important arguments.
