Akeira Gibbs Media Studies, Unit 45 commercial radio Fay In this essay I will be covering the topic of commercial radio and the 3 main purposes of it. A main purpose of radio commercials is to make money for the radio stations. Ways that they do this is by the sale of sponsorship, promotions and advertising. Radio stations like BBC don’t really participate in adverts ect as they are usually funded by Tv licensing. Radio is very important is it branches out to a lot of audiences and can be listened to when completing tasks such as driving places, when at work and just for background noise and many more. I would like to : · Briefly go over the history of radio and how it started out. Then go into when it started using the radio for advertisement purposes. · Most popular radio stations and ones making most money. · Where people are most likely to listen to the radio · How many people participate in competitions, call-ins/texts. ·
