Off the Dial: Minority and Female Station Ownership in the U.S.

See link for full report.

The results of this study reveal a dismally low level of minority and
female ownership of radio stations in America that has left two-thirds
of the U.S. population with few stations representing their communities
or serving their needs. Racial or ethnic minorities own just 7.7
percent of all full-power commercial broadcast radio stations, though
they account for 33 percent of the U.S. population.

• Latinos own just 2.9 percent of all U.S. full-power commercial broadcast radio stations.
• African-Americans own only 3.4 percent of this country's full-power commercial broadcast radio stations.
• People of Asian descent own less than 1 percent of full-power commercial broadcast radio stations.
