PRX News Station Picks for August

PRNDI Board member Naomi Starobin is the PRX News Curator. This month: Maybe these slow news days of August have you thinking about something fresh, new and lively. This list displays a range from series with short interstitial pieces that you can plug in to a news magazine or show, to longer ones that would make great choices for weekend hours that right now just aren't quite dazzling your audience. Check them out!

PRNDI is contributing ongoing programmatic and content expertise to The Public Radio Exchange.

PRNDI News Director Guide

The Public Radio News Director Guide (PRNDG) is now online.  Written by former PRNDI President Michael Marcotte, the PRNDG is a field guide for Public Radio News Directors around the country.  It's organized in six chapters and deals with a wide variety of topics facing today's Public Radio newsroom and newsroom manager.  The PRNDG is a joint project of PRNDI and NPR's Local News Initiative.  It's available at http://www.prndg.org/.


NPR's Local News Initiative

This NPR funded project includes many facets, some of which include involvement and support of PRNDI and its members.  All of them have the potential to help PRNDI members improve their product and better serve their audiences.  Check out LNI's web site  for more information.
