The NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF BROADCASTERS is running a full-page ad in the TENNESSEAN tomorrow in conjunction with the HOUSE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE hearing in NASHVILLE with a full complement of music industry executives.
The ad, which touts the importance of Country radio, includes a prominently displayed quote from former SONY MUSIC NASHVILLE Chairman/CEO GARY OVERTON: "If you're not on Country radio, you don't exist" (NET NEWS 2/23).
The rest of the ad copy reads as follows:
"Radio and musicians have a powerful partnership.
"Through airplay, interviews with performers, concert promotion and giveaways, radio delivers $2.4 billion in promotional value to artists and labels each year.
"And radio is still the #1 way listeners discover new music – 245 million AMERICANS listen to radio each week.
"Let’s keep the partnership strong."
