Content is worth paying for! – Jay Allison’s Benediction at 2011 PRPD

Jay Allison, Executive Director/Producer, Atlantic Public Media, delivered an amazing benediction at the Public Radio Program Directors Conference.

Here is a particularly insightful comment about paying for content:

John Barth of PRX tells me when he talks to stations about great new content he hears back, “Well, we’re not going to pay for anything.” I’m sure that’s none of you here. It’s those other stations, but . . . excuse me? Is content not the most important thing to pay for? Even in a financial crisis? Especially in a financial crisis? Isn’t that all our listeners really care about?

And, another thing. Aren’t we accusing our non-supportive listeners of the same thing? Taking our content and not paying for it? We chastise the 90 percent who don’t honor our content with their support. We have whole pledge drives devoted to that theme, and yet we’re doing the same thing.

Listen to Jay Allison’s PRPD Benediction OR read the transcript on Current.org

How do you feel about paying for quality programming for your station?
