Underwriting Guidelines

 

WJAB-FM 90.9 is a public radio station. There is a significant difference in public radio and commercial radio. A commercial radio station broadcasts advertising paid for by the advertisers. For public radio, program Underwriters in the form of businesses, foundations, and other organizations make contributions in support of programming. The contributors’ messages are set in a format that is not cluttered with commercial announcements. Your message will surely make a positive impact on our listeners.  We will work with you to produce an Underwriter announcement that is engaging, enlightening and best serves your needs and the listening audience. Please contact Latoyia Clemons latoyia.clemons@aamu.edu for more information
