The Ohio Association of Broadcasters recently held a round table discussion with Congressman Jim Jordan (R-OH) to address several pressing issues related to the radio industry, including the future of AM radio and the upcoming elections.
The event took place at the Sloan Kitchen in the Ohio Hi-Point Career Center, where members of the broadcasting community gathered for an intimate lunch with the congressman. Attendees expressed their concerns about the increasing trend among car manufacturers to exclude AM radio from new vehicle models. They emphasized the medium’s importance for local news and emergency broadcasting, particularly in rural areas.
Jordan listened attentively to the broadcasters’ concerns and engaged in meaningful dialogue about potential legislative support to ensure that AM radio remains an option in new cars.
