Radio: The End is Near – Unless you heed Bob Garfield
Bob Garfield is the ad critic for Advertising Age and the co-host of one of my favorite public radio programs, On The Media. He is also the author of a forthcoming book called The Chaos Scenario about the collision of traditional and digital media and the collapse of familiar marketing structures.
Bob’s take on what he calls “The Chaos Scenario” is one of the most important pieces you will read this year if you are in the radio trenches – or in its corporate boardrooms.
Read on. And share it with your peers.
Here's the full and unfiltered interview I conducted with Bob. You should listen to it. What follows is an abbreviated and edited transcript.
MP3 File
Bob, what is “The Chaos Scenario” that media face today?
The Chaos Scenario presumes first, that all of our existing media structures built on the symbiosis between mass media and mass marketing are collapsing - that we’re in the middle of an apocalyptic episode in our industrial history, equivalent to the industrial revolution. And because of the digital world, all of the old structures are shrinking, fragmentation is calamitous, and the yin and yang of media and marketing are flying apart, never to be rejoined. So that’s the first part.
The second part is that the new digital universe does not entirely replace the old world as we’ve come to know it and cherish it and count on it and believe it’s our birthright, and that while the digital revolution promises us more content than has ever been imaginable in all history of man and great opportunities to market and to forge relationships between marketers and consumers, that it will not give us new episodes of Lost and the Howard Stern Show.
My lord the one day i step away from the P.C. for awhile and you 4 decide to ruin my thread with this off-topic crap!!!!JK
Well Tyler i have a little problem with you and charles now slamming Brandon/CRFCEO for His dealings with his writing style and bussiness honesty and you both knew who he was and knew john and Homer had a problem with his style of no facts and didn't let the forum know who BM really was.
Now for myself who is relatively knew here and didn't know CRFCEO or any other forums other than here and SA but saw some posts and herd CRF referenced here a few times,My credibility factor for here is strained..
Aliases,pen names double and triple posting names,my lord what else is going to rear it's ugly head..
The matter of the 2sites coexisting will work itself out as knowledgable people will figure it out on there own,you can't post 10 articles a day on SATRAD,be real,you'll start making false factless mistakes and opinion's will be taken as fact soon enough(oh wait that is already happened,never mind).
But to wind up,John Homer and Tim thanks for the posting's here and everywhere..
I can understand your position. Continuing to post on Yahoo was a source of long term frustration for me. It was my hope that he would simply fade away from that activity in favor of writing.
When he left for about 2 months in the fall, I thought that the issue would simply fade away, and that Charles and I would move on. He then came back and began posting again. Disagreements on activities started again, and I became diheartened with all of it. You will see my posting became more scarce. I was torn on what to do. Then the second Hartlieb thing hit, and the camels back was broken.
Brandon is good at heart, but simply differs from what this site wanted in too many ways. It was for the best that the split happened. It was for the worst that the flame wars started.
As for pen names.....you need to understand that many authors use them. There are many "crazies" out there. I did not want middle of the night phone calls, etc. Brandon experienced that first hand when he registered the satwaves name and did not use Domains by proxy, but his own name.
I have no problem with people knowing my real name IF i have an understanding of who they are. It is why I correspond with people and let them know.

Well, FWIW... since I posted the above comment earlier today -- Brandon has gone back and changed his story by correcting it to say the proper Bill's now, linking them back to the 111th Congressional Session Bills.
I guess that means the Brandon still lurks on this site, to see what is being said about him.
Too bad he still ignores the fact that the opposition still has 193 votes opposing the new Performance Tax.
Tyler, I saw your article on this topic now -- and your attempt to play the non-biased side of the story. I get that. Yes, I am biased to the other side. All I will say at this point is that the 110th Congress had a similar Bill with 236 opposing co-sponsors. So it is not out of the realm of possibilities that the oppositition can garner the final 25 of so that they need to kill the Conyers Bill -- as they have done in the past.
The sad part about all of this??? The fact that the media keeps reporting this as a Royalty to benefit the artists -- when it is the record companies that will benefit the most, taking 50%+ of the royalty for themselves -- leaving the artist with a fraction of what they should really be getting for what they created.
This is another example of the record industry ****ing the artists who created the music in the first place. And they're doing it in the name of the "performer".
...yet it is us guys in radio being looked at as the "bad guy".
Unreal.
Why doesn't everyone look to see how much of the SoundExchange royalty paid by DARS actually goes to the writers/performers -- and how much goes to the record companies... I think you all would be surprised. This WHOLE setup is designed to make the record companies richer...
Back to Brandon/CRFCEO... what a skunk.
-------
Homer....
Very little doubt that the Performance tax bill has the advantage. The Conyers changes in the bill were designed to benefit the small stations and show a comprimise.
The record companies are the ones getting rich either way.
Shoot me an email.

homer, From what I understand the proformer gets pennys per CD, that it is really only the concerts that they make their money on.
for a good history of how record labels take advantage of artists, look up the TLC story. They were I think into there third huge albumn release, and they were still making almost nothing on that effort. Yes, ive heard that too, to motivate the artist to tour as well, they link most profits for them from that end of it. Maybe changing now, not sure.
