NFCB has partnered with the Public Radio Program Directors Association for a free webinar.
At PRPD’s 2018 Content Conference, Fred Jacobs said that, based on his view of the latest research, the Core Values still hold.
He proceeded to show listener responses sharing their reasons for listening to public radio. The needs public radio was meeting in those listeners definitely align with the Core Values documented in the original Core Values Project.
Launched in 2000, the project’s central goal was to clearly define and articulate the fundamental appeal of public radio’s programming.
The Core Values were built by having producers talk among themselves about their work and then reverse engineering that understanding through focus groups back to the existing audience. The most significant study of public radio’s service and appeal was done before social media, smartphones, and the emergence of Millennials – the largest and most diverse generation in American history.
Join us on Thursday, January 17, 2019 at 4pm ET for a webinar that is designed to be immediately useful for every news and information-focused public service broadcaster. Register here.
