An Occasional Paper of the Kettering Foundation


By Brett Davidson

This comparative overview of radio in the United States and South Africa suggests that there is much more going on in the world of radio than we might have imagined. Not only does radio inform and entertain us but, Brett Davidson contends, radio deserves serious attention as a medium with a vital role to play in democracy, in civic participation, and in public deliberation.

Davidson produced Radio and Public Deliberation during the six months he spent at Kettering as a Fanning Fellow for Journalism and Democracy.
