Attracting at-work listeners has long been indispensable to the success of AC, classic hits and other music formats. A webinar from NuVoodoo Media Services, “How to Win the Workplace War With PPM Panels & Diary Keepers,” offered broadcasters a tool chest of new information about best practices to reel them in and keep them listening.
The media marketing, programming and content intelligence provider surveyed 3,041 persons ages 14-54 online in January 2018, focused in Nielsen PPM markets.
Calling its sample group “ratings likelies,” meaning those deemed inclined to participate in PPM or diary surveys, NuVoodoo asked participants if they listened to either the radio or a streaming service while at work. In total, 39.1% said yes—with a robust 56.4% of “PPM likelies” responding yes and 59.0% of “diary likelies” saying yes. The percentages were highest for those 18-34, followed by 25-54, 35-54 and 14-24.

Ruby Rouge is een van daardie kunstenaars wat jou beïndruk wanneer jy haar vir die eerste keer hoor sing. Daar is ’n hartroerende opregtheid en meesleurende melodie in haar stem wat jou aangryp en by jou bly lank nadat sy klaar gesing het.
Dit is dan ook hierdie eienskappe wat die eerste enkelsnitvrystelling vanaf haar debuut-album so onvergeetlik maak.
Gaining Perspective is ’n ineteressante popmusiek- en klavierverwerking wat selfs die kritieste oor sal beïndruk. Hierdie ballade, uit haar eie pen, gaan oor selfaanvaarding en is ’n tema waarby almal sal aanklank vind. “Die liedjie gaan daaroor om jouself te aanvaar ten spyte van wat ander mense se opinies is,” verklap die talentvolle musikant en liedjieskrywer oor haar eerste vrystelling.
“Ek het altyd baie ongemaklik gevoel in my eie vel tot op die dag wat ek genoeg gehad het en ’n liedjie geskryf het daaroor om net jouself te wees en sterk te staan wanneer diegene rondom jou n
Bipartisan support for a proposal to raise the maximum fine for pirate radio to as much as $2 million emerged in the House Subcommittee on Communications and Technology on Thursday. During a discussion into the proposed Preventing Illegal Radio Abuse Through Enforcement or “PIRATE” Act, which is being circulated among members, lawmakers agreed the current fines have come up short in the effort to go after pirate radio operators. “It’s high time we pay more attention to the harm being done to consumers and broadcasters alike,” Subcommittee chair Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) said.
Federal law presently allows the Federal Communications Commission to impose a maximum fine of $19,246 per day for each violation or each day up to a statutory maximum of $144,344. The proposal would boost that to as much $100,000 per day, per violation with a maximum fine allowed by law of $2 million.
The impact of pirate stations may be well known to anyone in radio, but
Christian broadcaster Education Media Foundation continues its recent buying spree with the purchase of WSHA Raleigh-Durham, NC (88.9) from Shaw University for an undisclosed price.
The sale of the station from Shaw, known as the oldest historically black college in the South, has been met with criticism from alumni, with one group saying their offer to buy the station was met with silence.
When news of the intended sale of the radio station surfaced last December, a petition was formed on change.org, which collected nearly 2,000 signatures, the News & Observer reported. A group called “Friends of Shaw” was formed and claims to have made an offer to purchase the station from the University.
“Once we learned of their intent to sell WSHA, a group of alumni actually offered to purchase the station,” 1995 graduate Kesha Monk told the paper. “However, our efforts were blatantly ignored.” Since graduation, Monk went on to a professional career in the r

Hubbard Radio has rebranded country KNUC Seattle as “98.9 The Bull” from “Country 98.9.” It’s the latest change at the new station, which Hubbard flipped from rock in December, after Entercom dropped country on KMPS in favor of soft AC as “The New 94.1 The Sound.”
“Welcome to the next evolution of 98.9, a personality all its own,” PD Lisa Adams said. “More Bull, more music, more fun.”
Adams was named PD of the station in January after serving as marketing director for AC sister “Warm 106.9” KRWM. Her programming experience includes the OM/PD post at Townsquare Media hot AC “Mix 106” KCIX, AC “107.9 Lite FM” KXLT and “WOW Country 104.3” KAWO in Boise, ID.
Since her hire, Adams has been staffing up the new country outlet, adding the morning team of Tim Leary, Claire Beverly and Karen (Red) Daiss in February. The trio came to KNUC from Alpha Media country “Bob 106.9” WUBB Savannah, GA, where they anchored m
