Public radio listening is growing

Insider Radio - Public radio listening is showing signs of a meaningful rebound, with new analysis from the Radio Research Consortium finding the noncommercial radio audience has grown during the past two years — and the gains cannot simply be chalked up to Nielsen’s measurement changes.  Looking across five major noncommercial formats — news/talk, contemporary Christian, classical, AAA (adult alternative) and jazz — RRC says combined cume across PPM and continuous diary measurement markets is 9.6% higher than it was two years ago at the end of Q1.
