PRX: In for a Dollar

Hi friend of PRX,

If you work in public radio, the news that the Big Three CEOs are willing to work for $1 per year might elicit a big “join the club.” In an era of tightened belts, PRX is doing its part. We’re keeping most station membership rates flat and at the same time we have adjusted our royalty structure so that producers have the chance to earn more than before. All you have to do is get a PRX membership, upload great radio and work with stations. Do that, and you’ll never have to ask Congress for a multi-billion-dollar bailout.

Vrooom,

John
