The Radio Journalism Tradition
Violet WoolfWhat radio journalism has produced and what survives of it in 2025
|The Tradition
The radio journalism tradition -- the specific narrative form that audio journalism has developed across the century of radio broadcasting, whose practitioners at their peak produced the specific intimacy and authority that the human voice without visual distraction enables -- has in 2025 the specific continuation in public radio that sustains it and the specific adaptation in the podcast form that has extended it to new audiences.
The Survival
The survival of radio journalism: the NPR and BBC Radio 4 journalism traditions are the specific institutional embodiments of the radio journalism that have maintained the investment in the audio journalism form through the period when television and then digital media reduced the general public attention to radio. The podcast form has extended the radio journalism audience to the specifically mobile and on-demand listeners whose consumption patterns differ from the scheduled radio audience.
