Clear Channel To Offer Programming To Rival Broadcasters
Clear Channel Radio has revealed it will offer 75 new radio channels as programming
for its rival broadcasters. The channels will not just be available as HD2 stations though,
they are part of a total audio, video and text package that will serve Internet channels,
Web sites, iPods, satellite broadcasting and in-vehicle navagation systems as well.The
new programming was created by CC's Content Research & Development Group, and is
the result of "a previously secret initiative" known as "the Format Lab." The Format Lab is
made up of veteran programmers and is headed up by content EVP Tom Owens and
Online Music & Radio head Evan Harrison. The organization is described as a "virtual
community" made up of over 200 programmers and production vets."We have become
agnostic about delivery and are completely passionate about content," said Clear
Channel Radio President/CEO John Hogan. "And we'll continue to lead the radio
industry on to new platforms. Radio programming is the most engaging and compelling
media today. Our power to connect with, and hold, consumers will continue to reveal itself
as we supplement our outstanding AM/FM properties with programming for new
devices."Clear Channel promises that a number of non-professional radio programmers
will also be involved in many of the new stations, such as a personal trainer as part of the
workout channels or a Broadway vet programming a channel of show tunes.Broadcasters
will be able to use the CC content however they see fit, from just running it as-is to adding
in their own customized, local content. "We've created this programming to give
broadcasters the most flexibility and the best return on investment," said Hogan. "The
massive amounts of programming needed to feed rapidly growing numbers of HD2
multicast channels, Internet streams and other near-term opportunities dwarfs the real
estate that our industry had to fill with the advent of FM. By making extraordinary
programming available even more broadly, the radio industry will be able to fully

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------HD Radio Offerings Expand
The HD Radio Alliance has revealed it is planning to almost double its HD offerings
nationally, with 22 additional markets added, including 42 of the top 50. This second wave
of markets brings to total number of HD channels up to 450. Clear Channel specifically
hopes to have 100 HD channels up and running by September. "One of the most exciting
things about HD Radio is the ability to offer innovative new content customized for each
individual local market," said HD Digital Radio Alliance President/CEO Peter Ferrara.
"Unlike any other audio entertainment source, radio is all about serving the local
community and these new HD2 channels will do just that." The 22 new HD Radio markets
are:
Phoenix

will also be heard streaming

manufactured."Bentley added
that, "Neil wants this album
out there as soon as possible"
and that it should arrive in
stores between May 5 and
15. Much has already been
made about the track "Let's
Impeach The President,"
while other new songs on
