Right on the button bud. I have this problem with respect. To the listener, the advertiser or the boss. To come on air and not know what the f**k you are going to talk about shows absolutely no respect and also arrogant complacency...!!

Radio is losing its intelligence (part II)

[Anthony Duke] In part I, I stated that "radio has lost its intelligence", with commercial music radio being the main culprit and also because there's a general dearth of quality management to develop the talent pool. I've written and taught a lot on some of the finer aspects of engaging the listener so, in part II here, indulge me as I mention a few.

Radio is losing its intelligence (part I)

[Anthony Duke] Next week I start listening to entrants in the MTN Radio Awards for the third year*. The awards themselves have vastly improved but I doubt if the content quality will indicate the same. This is not necessarily the fault of the entrants themselves but a more fundamental reason in that there is a general dearth of quality management to develop the talent pool.

Anthony Duke commented on Heart 104.9FM Breakfast Show increases despite uncertainty
The swing between CT listeners and stations is about as stagnant as the love affair between the DJ's and their audiences. All are same, same, same and any increase anywhere is something to shout out to the world. Until the next RAMS ...
