Monday Memo: Your Podcast Isn't a Broadcast | TALKERS magazine - talk media trade

By Holland Cooke Consultant   BLOCK ISLAND, RI -- Be there or be square. Legacy media are scrambling to follow eyes and ears beyond old towers and deliver the on-demand options users now favor. NBC’s got Peacock; CBS touts its Paramount+ and invites us to watch the rest of “60 Minutes” inte ...

Monday Memo: Listeners Kidnapped! | TALKERS magazine

By Holland Cooke Consultant   BLOCK ISLAND, RI -- Notice how often transmitters invite listeners and viewers to leave? NBC uses affiliates' air to ask viewers to watch Peacock instead. They even cannibalize their own linear channels. As President Trump recently addressed Congress, Lest ...

Monday Memo: Was Rush the Format? | TALKERS magazine


 
BLOCK ISLAND, RI — He told us that, first-and-foremost, he was an entertainer. And was he ever. As was the late gritty iconoclast G. Gordon Liddy, second-in back when political talk radio found traction. Either of them probably could’ve read the phone book and held our attention. Local hosts chimed-into what became a conservative chorus. Yet, as they still share the same sheet music, it’s not the same without the lead singer.
Post-Reagan Revolution, Rush did best when Clinton and Obama were in the White House. During Dubya’s turn, Limbaugh’s act was still big in small markets but got measurably smaller in big markets. iHeart moved him from 640 to 1150 in Los Angeles (“KEIB”), and some “Rush Radio” stations re-branded. As Trump drummed-up discord, Rush rebounded, and soldiered-on, often in pain. RIP.

Monday Memo: Meet Meg | TALKERS magazine - "The bible of talk media." : TALKERS magazine – "The bible of talk media."


 
WAUSAU, WI — Client stations are sharing feedback from listeners increasingly uncomfortable with “guided” Rush Limbaugh Show reruns. “Morbid,” “forced,” “clinging to the past,” and “icky” are among verbatim comments, as, for instance – three months after Rush passed – aircheck clips react to President Biden’s address to Congress.
Non-iHeart stations (allowed to) are bailing, most to one of a half-dozen other syndicated keepers of the flame. Some stations, however, are recovering the network inventory and reallocating Limbaugh cash clearance dollars to fund live-N-local hosts in his former hours. Last week’s
column suggested a creative financing model.

Monday Memo: Help Wanted, Local Host : TALKERS magazine – "The bible of talk media."


 
BLOCK ISLAND, RI — If talk radio is Rush Limbaugh reacting to the Derek Chauvin verdict, it’s time for a new plan.
Better yet, how about an old plan? While exasperated EIB affiliates – other than iHeart stations that have no choice – are exploring various would-be syndicated successors, is anyone reverting these hours to local?
Rush broke new ground.
Before stations took the leap, the only major satellite-delivered talk daypart was Larry King’s overnight show. In 1980, Mutual (dee-boop) gave affiliates a free dish! Even with Larry’s gift, only the wee hours were “safe” for non-local programming, until Rush.
Repeatedly Rush explained – to us in convention keynotes, and on-air – that, first-and-foremost, he was an entertainer, holding our attention through “obscene profit-making time-outs” sold “at confiscatory rates.”

BLOCK ISLAND, RI — To quote the immortal Yogi Berra: “You can observe a lot by just watching.” And listening! And shoptalk we hear reminds us to be agile WHILE doing-what-only-we-can-do:
 
“It has the best-best of both worlds.”
SiriusXM CFO Sean Sullivan, telling the recent Deutsche Bank Annual Media, Internet & Telecom Conference how new two-way interactive 360L satellite radio receivers “can offer up other content, including podcasts and other things” such as Pandora, which SiriusXM bought two years ago, and Stitcher, acquired more recently. NOT among “other things:” Local news and personalities, which smart stations continue to offer.
“Listening on a mobile device now accounts for 30% of all time spent listening to audio by those age 13+ in the U.S., an increase of 67% since 2014.”

Monday Memo: Argument? Or Assessment? : TALKERS magazine – "The bible of talk media."


BLOCK ISLAND, RI — While shutdown-weary listeners yearn for The American Comeback:
FOX News feeds gotcha questions to budding correspondents it sends to White House briefings, where this president’s press secretary is more diplomatic than her predecessors.
Once CNBC’s credible, iconic “Money Honey,” FOX News B-teamer Maria Bartiromo seems to have taken the baton from disgraced Lou Dobbs. Mark Levin’s pitch is approaching an octave only dogs can hear.
Prominent among cable news and talk radio catch-phrase accusations are that Democrats want “utopia” and “open borders,” words I have never heard Democrats utter.
Asian-Americans are being assaulted in broad daylight, after Donald Trump branded COVID-19 “The Chi-nah Virus” relentlessly, because he knows what our sales reps preach to advertisers: repetition works.
