A Word about Student Radio...
According to Neilson Reports, radio is the most accessed form of media in the United States and leads television, internet, smartphones, and cable. Of course, the reason is sitting in your driveway (What's the first thing most drivers do after starting their cars?). Commercial radio reported $14 billion in sales for 2015. The San Francisco Bay Area is the 4th largest media market in the United States with over 100 radio stations. Yet, in all that, there are only 8 college radio stations. Internships at commercial stations are difficult to obtain and many do not provide hands-on radio experience.
Your support enables KLSN Radio to give East County journalism and recording arts students the opportunity to gain the hands-on experience that provides a hiring edge in a competitive industry.
