The funding initiative awarded a total of $20 million to 205 news outlets.
The June through August 2024 period was, at best, sluggish for station fundraising across several key performance indicators compared to the same period in 2023.
The new program will be built from the “best of the DNA of ‘The Diane Rehm Show,’” but with some changes.
Many wanted to see Sen. Cory Booker’s speech in its entirety.
The show will continue as a podcast with leaner production and may still air on some stations.
Kareem Maddox is making an unusual transition.
The $939,000 will be distributed in fiscal year 2017.
Tuesday’s show will air live on each station at 1 p.m. Central time and can also be heard on their online streams.
One area needing attention is recruitment of Latinos, particularly in supervisory roles.
The network and more than two dozen stations will share a space on the convention floor.
Other stations can learn from KPLU’s shockingly successful bid for independence.
