In college, Maggie Martin felt invigorated telling listeners what was happening and why it was important.
Houston Public Media and KEDT in Corpus Christi, Texas, have received initial support.
HPM has also been working with public radio partners in Texas to cover the historic storm.
A Murder in Montrose: The Paul Broussard Legacy examines the history and future of the city’s LGBT activism.
KSBJ Educational Foundation paid $10 million for the station.
Research shows that events in Miami and Houston aren’t a harbinger of decline.
The broadcaster acquired the signal for $9.6 million in 2011.
The initiative grows out of the stations’ partnership on producing the daily newsmagazine Texas Standard.
Houston Public Media unveiled a new website this week as part of its ongoing effort to converge its radio, TV and digital operations. The site launched March 1 alongside a six-month marketing campaign that combines billboard ads and direct mail, aiming to raise awareness of the pubcaster’s multiple offerings under one brand. The website was developed by outside consultants and provides an online portal to HPM’s television and radio stations, including news/talk 88.7 FM and classical 91.7 FM, all owned by the University of Houston. The Houston stations were managed separately until a 2011 reorganization that adopted a converged pubcasting model along the lines of Cleveland’s ideastream and San Diego’s KPBS. With the March 1 site relaunch and promo blitz, HPM consolidated its branding and marketing, offering memberships and selling underwriting for Houston Public Media rather than the three individual stations.
