Leveling the Playing Field For Multicultural Radio

0

It’s hard to get a fair share if you don’t first get a fair shake.


For years, ethnic- and minority-targeted stations, including those targeting Hispanic and Urban audiences, have had to fight their way—sometimes unsuccessfully—to get a place at the buying table.

It has been a battle that is estimated by some to have cost African-American and Hispanic broadcasters more than $300 million in revenue annually for their stations.

The Fair Play Charter

In February 2018, the Media Leadership Council (MLC) of the 4A’s advertising industry association issued a Fair Play Charter to its members as guidance and agreement to fair and equitable treatment for owners of minority-owned and -targeted media.

  • How has the charter impacted Hispanic radio since its implementation?
  • What progress has been made in terms of better communications between media and agencies as a result of the charter?
  • How can stations improve their presentations and marketing opportunities with their partners across the table?

 

The Hispanic Radio Conference is pleased to present a session that takes an in-depth look at the goals and the score card of the Fair Play Charter one year after its introduction.

The session is moderated by Rick Ramos, SVP/Business Development with Katz Media, who has established himself as a multicultural expert with nearly 25 years of experience. As a multicultural specialist, he has worked with many of the top broadcast radio companies that provide information, entertainment, and content for the Hispanic audience, like Univision Radio and SBS.
