    Since the beginning of radio’s “golden age” in the 1940’s, this form of mass media has experienced many changes from different programming, to advertising, to broadcast laws, etc. Beginning when the first radio station, KDKA, signed on in 1920 , it was quickly being picked up as a new emerging form of mass media. By the mid-20’s radios themselves were better and easier to use, and by 1930, were being purchased by the millions. Radio not only survived but thrived through the great depression. This would only be the beginning of its journey of change. Radio, like many other mass media, has continued to evolve to meet the constantly changing wants and needs of society.…

    The text examines the social implications and reasons for being of radio and refers to various scholars who have examined the form and its effects of this revolutionary device which unites listeners through simultaneity of listening and the physical responses listening engenders. Through the physiological, social, cultural, and technological spheres of this medium, it is obvious that it is much more complex than commonly believed, and the text brings to light the ramifications of its introduction into a literary, visual culture, creating a hybrid America : a conservative, literate society entwined with a traditional, preliterate. oral culture.…

    1. Radio One’s opportunities and risks with respect to their acquisition policy We have identified four main benefits and five major risks with respect to the desired acquisition of 12 urban stations along with the nine stations in Charlotte, Augusta and Indianapolis. Potential benefits: 1. After the acquisition of the 12 urban stations, Radio One becomes the market leader in the African-American segment. The market leader is usually the most attractive negotiator for advertisement companies since it targeting the audience largely. Therefore, the acquisition can increase Radio One’s advertisement revenues. 2. Radio One describes in its strategy plan the intention to expand its business activity scope in the long run. The acquisition of the 12 urban stations provides greater opportunities for Radio One’s planned expansion into a broader scope of media, such as internet, cable radio and recording. Therefore, the acquisition affects the realization of its strategy positively. 3. The acquisition can create some synergies for Radio One since the 12 target radio stations are in the same line of business as the existing radio stations. Potential synergies can be realized by cutting costs and improve efficiencies. One straightforward way to do this is by merging some of Radio One’s departments, for instance marketing, finance, and etcetera. 4. The African-American audience can be characterized as a high growth market segment with 60% faster population growth and 150% faster income growth than the general population. The acquisition enables Radio One to provide radio services in much more markets for the African-American audience. In this way, Radio One can attract more African-Americans which will become a very…

    The radio had become a huge factor of communication when it was introduced in the golden ages after World War 1. During the 1920’s powerful transmitters permitted stations to reach much longer audiences with nationally syndicated programs. The radio had broadcasts that gave the audience a sense familiarity with newscasters and stars for addressing consumers. During the late 20’s two-thirds of homes in the United State had a radio. A decade later, Britain had…

    Radio One Case Study

    • 5 Pages

    After the Telecommunication act in 1996 significant consolidation occurred in the Radio Industry, thereafter Radio companies were able to obtain cost savings by acquiring multiple stations in one area and reaching economies of scale. The nation’s two biggest radio company - AMFM and Clear Channel – was just about to merge and in order to do so the FCC required them to divest 100 radio stations. This was an unprecedented growth opportunity for Radio One as 12 of these stations fitted perfectly their corporate strategy which was to „provide urban-oriented music, entertainment, and information to primarily African-Americans in as many major markets as possible”. Since under normal market conditions radio stations in the top 50 markets rarely became available for purchase, this was a perfect opportunity for Radio One to expand and implement further cost-savings through economies of scale, programming syndication, reduction of duplicate staffing and increasing advertizing revenues by becoming able to offer wider audiences and „package deals” for advertisers. This was also an opportunity to expand to new markets. Radio One’s bidding position was backed up by Chairman William Kennard’s advocacy at the FCC, which encouraged the sale of at least some stations to minorities, and since only Radio One had the experience and the capital among the potential buyers it had a strong position.…

    Radio Broadcast

    Radio broadcasting was introduced to the public in the early 1920s (Potter 226). There was only one type of broadcast protocol in the 1920’s and 30’s being AM radio(The Early Years). In 1921 there were only five AM radio stations, and only about 1% of all households in this country had a receiver (Potter 226). A receiver was basically another name for a radio because at this time radios were very expensive and there were not enough radio stations to make the system work. However, in 1923 there were over 500 stations to pop up which in turn led to increased sales of receivers to the general public (Potter 226). With the popping up of more radio stations the more receivers were being bought which meant that many people in the public were tuning into these various radio stations for information and entertainment. Radio was on the rise and it seemed that there was nothing slowing it down.…
