Title: Arena_Football_League
Context: Beginning with the 2003 season, the AFL made a deal with NBC to televise league games, which was renewed for another two years in 2005. In conjunction with this, the league moved the beginning of the season from May to February (the week after the NFL's Super Bowl) and scheduled most of its games on Sunday instead of Friday or Saturday as it had in the past. In 2006, because of the XX Winter Olympic Games, the Stanley Cup playoffs and the Daytona 500, NBC scaled back from weekly coverage to scattered coverage during the regular season, but committed to a full playoff schedule ending with the 20th ArenaBowl. NBC and the Arena Football League officially severed ties on June 30, 2006, having failed to reach a new broadcast deal. Las Vegas owner Jim Ferraro stated during a radio interview that the reason why a deal failed is because ESPN refused to show highlights or even mention a product being broadcast on NBC.

Title: Arena_Football_League
Context: The NFL Network ceased airing Arena Football League games partway through the 2012 season as a result of ongoing labor problems within the league. Briefly, the games were broadcast on a tape delay to prevent the embarrassment that would result should the players stage a work stoppage immediately prior to a scheduled broadcast. (In at least once incidence this actually happened, resulting in a non-competitive game being played with replacement players, and further such incidents were threatened.) Once the labor issues were resolved, the NFL Network resumed the practice of broadcasting a live Friday night game. NFL Network dropped the league at the end of the 2012 season.

Title: Arena_Football_League
Context: The AFL currently runs as under the single-entity model, with the league owning the rights to the teams, players, and coaches. The single-entity model was adopted in 2010 when the league emerged from bankruptcy. Prior to that, the league followed the franchise model more common in North American professional sports leagues; each team essentially operated as its own business and the league itself was a separate entity which in exchange for franchise fees paid by the team owners provided rules, officials, scheduling and the other elements of organizational structure. A pool of money is allotted to teams to aid in travel costs.

Title: Adult_contemporary_music
Context: Adult contemporary music (AC) is a style of music, ranging from 1960s vocal and 1970s soft rock music to predominantly ballad-heavy music of the present day, with varying degrees of easy listening, pop, soul, rhythm and blues, quiet storm, and rock influence. Adult contemporary is rather a continuation of the easy listening and soft rock style that became popular in the 1960s and 1970s with some adjustments that reflect the evolution of pop/rock music.

answer: soft rock
Title: Adult_contemporary_music
Context: Adult contemporary tends to have lush, soothing and highly polished qualities where emphasis on melody and harmonies is accentuated. It is usually melodic enough to get a listener's attention, and is inoffensive and pleasurable enough to work well as background music. Like most of pop music, its songs tend to be written in a basic format employing a verse–chorus structure.

question: Along with harmonies, what aspect of music is emphasized in adult contemporary? 

answer: melody

question: What is the typical structure of an adult contemporary song? 

answer: verse–chorus structure

question: With what broader style of music does adult contemporary share its structure?

Title: Adult_contemporary_music
Context: Adult contemporary is heavy on romantic sentimental ballads which mostly use acoustic instruments (though bass guitar is usually used) such as acoustic guitars, pianos, saxophones, and sometimes an orchestral set. The electric guitars are normally faint and high-pitched. However, recent adult contemporary music may usually feature synthesizers (and other electronics, such as drum machines).

question: What type of song is frequently seen in the adult contemporary genre? 

answer: romantic sentimental ballads

question: Along with synthesizers, what electronic instruments sometimes appear in modern adult contemporary?

Title: Adult_contemporary_music
Context: AC radio stations may play mainstream music, but they will exclude hip hop, dance tracks, hard rock, and some forms of teen pop, as they are less popular amongst the target demographic of these radio stations, which is intended for an adult audience. AC radio often targets the 25–44 age group, the demographic that has received the most attention from advertisers since the 1960s. A common practice in recent years is that many adult contemporary stations play less newer music because they also give ample airtime to hits of the past, so the de-emphasis on new songs slows the progression of the AC chart.

question: What age group does adult contemporary radio typically focus on? 

answer: 25–44

question: Along with teen pop, dance and hard rock, what form of music is typically not heard on AC radio? 

answer: hip hop

question: When did advertisers begin to focus on the adult contemporary age demographic? 

answer: 1960s

question: What type of music are AC stations noted as playing less of versus hits of the past? 

answer: newer music
Title: Adult_contemporary_music
Context: Over the years, AC has spawned subgenres including "hot AC", "soft AC" (also known as "lite AC"), "urban AC", "rhythmic AC", and "Christian AC" (a softer type of contemporary Christian music). Some stations play only "hot AC", "soft AC", or only one of the variety of subgenres. Therefore, it is not usually considered a specific genre of music; it is merely an assemblage of selected tracks from musicians of many different genres.

question: What is lite AC otherwise known as? 

answer: soft AC

question: What is Christian AC a subgenre of? 

answer: contemporary Christian music

question: Along with hot, soft, urban and Christian AC, what is another prominent time of adult contemporary music? 

answer: rhythmic AC
Title: Adult_contemporary_music
Context: Adult contemporary traces its roots to the 1960s easy listening format, which adopted a 70-80% instrumental - 20-30% vocal mix. A few offered 90% instrumentals, and a handful were entirely instrumental. The easy listening format, as it was first known, was born of a desire by some radio stations in the late 1950s and early 1960s to continue playing current hit songs but distinguish themselves from being branded as "rock and roll" stations. Billboard first published the Easy Listening chart July 17, 1961, with 20 songs; the first number one was "Boll Weevil Song" by Brook Benton. The chart described itself as "not too far out in either direction".

question: From what decade of easy listening radio does adult contemporary trace its heritage? 

answer: 1960s

question: Generally speaking, what percentage of music on easy listening stations was instrumental? 

answer: 70-80%

question: On what date was the Billboard easy listening chart first published?

question: How many songs were on the first Billboard easy listening chart? 

answer: 20

question: Who performed the first #1 on the easy listening chart? 

answer: Brook Benton
Title: Adult_contemporary_music
Context: Initially, the vocalists consisted of artists such as Frank Sinatra, Doris Day, Johnny Mathis, Connie Francis, Nat King Cole, Perry Como, and others. The custom recordings were usually instrumental versions of current or recent rock and roll or pop hit songs, a move intended to give the stations more mass appeal without selling out. Some stations would also occasionally play earlier big band-era recordings from the 1940s and early 1950s.

question: Along with Frank Sinatra, Doris Day, Johnny Mathis, Nat King Cole, and Perry Como, who was a prominent early adult contemporary radio artist? 

answer: Connie Francis

question: What type of covers of pop and rock songs were usually played on adult contemporary? 

answer: instrumental

question: What songs from the 1940s and 1950s would adult contemporary stations play? 

answer: big band-era recordings
Title: Adult_contemporary_music
Context: After 1965, differences between the Hot 100 chart and the Easy Listening chart became more pronounced. Better reflecting what middle of the road stations were actually playing, the composition of the chart changed dramatically. As rock music continued to harden, there was much less crossover between the Hot 100 and Easy Listening chart than there had been in the early half of the 1960s. Roger Miller, Barbra Streisand and Bobby Vinton were among the chart's most popular performers.

question: What chart did the Easy Listening chart begin to diverge from? 

answer: the Hot 100 chart

question: In what year did the Easy Listening and Hot 100 charts begin to diverge?

answer: Bobby Vinton

question: Why did the crossover between Hot 100 and Easy Listening decrease? 

answer: rock music continued to harden
Title: Adult_contemporary_music
Context: One big impetus for the development of the AC radio format was that, when rock and roll music first became popular in the mid-1950s, many more conservative radio stations wanted to continue to play current hit songs while shying away from rock. These middle of the road (or "MOR") stations also frequently included older, pre-rock-era adult standards and big band titles to further appeal to adult listeners who had grown up with those songs.

question: During what decade did rock and roll music first rise to popularity? 

answer: 1950s

question: What does the acronym MOR stand for? 

answer: middle of the road

question: Along with pre-rock standards, what type of older songs did MOR stations play? 

answer: big band titles
Title: Adult_contemporary_music
Context: Another big impetus for the evolution of the AC radio format was the popularity of easy listening or "beautiful music" stations, stations with music specifically designed to be purely ambient. Whereas most easy listening music was instrumental, created by relatively unknown artists, and rarely purchased, AC was an attempt to create a similar "lite" format by choosing certain tracks (both hit singles and album cuts) of popular artists.

question: What was another term for easy listening stations? 

answer: beautiful music

question: Easy listening was predominately what type of music? 

answer: instrumental

question: What types of tracks from popular artists did adult contemporary radio play? 

answer: hit singles and album cuts

question: What type of format were adult contemporary and easy listening stations meant to share? 

answer: lite
Title: Adult_contemporary_music
Context: Hard rock had been established as a mainstream genre by 1965. From the end of the 1960s, it became common to divide mainstream rock music into soft and hard rock, with both emerging as major radio formats in the US. Soft rock was often derived from folk rock, using acoustic instruments and putting more emphasis on melody and harmonies. Major artists included Barbra Streisand, Carole King, Cat Stevens, James Taylor and Bread.

question: As of what year was hard rock a mainstream type of music? 

answer: 1965

question: Along with soft rock, what type of music made up mainstream rock music in the late 1960s?
