Never say anything you do not want to read in print or hear on radio or television. In many countries, radio is the best method to reach a mass audience. Public speeches are effective, but only if the speaker understands the level of education, economic and cultural outlooks, and differences in local customs. An estimated 15 percent of Americans get their news from listening to the radio. Radio 'talk shows' are becoming an increasingly popular tool for individuals to express their political and social opinions.
Most radio stations have news segments throughout the day.
Many radio stations get their information from news syndicates, and larger stations that have their own operations. How you approach the radio will depend on the structure of the station's operation. You may be able to call in your news directly. You may also have the opportunity to telephone a radio 'talk show' and offer your views. Some smaller stations also do interviews in their own radio studios.
