So on Public Broadcasting radio, part of the FCC rules state that you cannot run advertisements because it's meant to be a public space for people to get their message out. The idea is that the people own the air waves, and the FCC gives out licenses for people to operate in the public interest. Obviously PBS, runs most of these public broadcast stations. Their programming grew, and they needed a way to pay for all the premium content they were offering, so they decided to get "Underwriters". After checking with the lawyers, the rules were written in such that as long as there isn't a direct call to action, it is not an advertisement.

So all PBS stations call outs will mention a company name, and a product, but spoken completely by the people on the radio show. There will never be a "Buy this and you'll feel good!" claim made on anything, and thus are not advertisements.

long story short, someone will find a way around

while i agree, in principal - its dihonest to insinuate theres noi difference bewteen commercial radiop and the poo poo at n below 89.9 on the fm dial. there are WAY fewer ads and they are WAY less intrusive than u get at the top of the band. its really dumb and honesttly hilarious to insinuate or hyperbole otherwise

like n1 is gonna listen to a couple hours of npr vs jack fm and think 'yea same poo poo'. one of them is obviously begrudgingly runing ads due to the realities of the cost of producing content and the other is a vehicle to sell ads. im not anti ad, as im sure youv'e gleaned from my posting in your threads and a large % of my personal income is derived from ads and/or selling content - but its pretty freakin dishonest to use your obviously privilaged and authoritaive position to coerce the idiot denizens of YOSPOS that the public and private parts of the fm band are equiv

I pay money to run my message on your station, and just because one has weird guidelines its not advertising????

listen nobdy not even me said its not ads but its obvious, and im not going to retype my first message for you due to epically fail reading comprehension, but its dishonest to put some retarded equivalence between jackfm and kpcc

dont twist my totally coherent posts into some fail anti ad posts. ads are what allwo us to get cool poo poo for free. but its mega false equivilence to say that npr and jack fm are the same because of underwriting. listen to them for 20 minutes and it'll be pretty freakin obvious that whoever penned that nonsense was a hyperbole hydra
