Panel Discussion on the Future of Radio
Andy Gladding believes that radio ownership is particularly appealing to Gen-X and Millennial professionals. He suggests that many are seeking meaningful community engagement through entrepreneurship. “People my age are looking for an opportunity to make an impact and build lasting relationships,” he notes.
This panel will explore how radio can provide a fulfilling career path for those trained in media workflows and local business marketing. Andy, an engineer with Salem Media Network and educator at Hofstra University, recently acquired WKZE(FM) in Red Hook, N.Y.
