内容説明

The Radio Broadcasting Industry offers students a comprehensive and current examination of radio from an industry perspective. Perhaps no form of mass media has undergone as much change and evolution as radio, which continues to reinvent itself today. This book introduces radio - from early history to current programming, ownership and regulatory developments - and previews future technological considerations. By placing a strong emphasis on the business of radio, students develop a complete understanding of the industry and of how radio stations attract and retain an audience that could be spending its time with other media forms.
