Census Bureau Accepting Ad Buy Proposals from Local Stations
NAB has been aggressively seeking federal advertising opportunities for local radio and television stations facing enormous economic challenges due to the pandemic. To that end, NAB has been in contact with the Census Bureau on utilizing local broadcast advertising to increase response rates to the census in areas where they fall below the national average. We're pleased that the Census Bureau announced a $75 million RFP process for spots that will target mostly rural areas. As the media planning and buying window is extremely tight, we encourage stations that are interested in submitting a proposal to do so as soon as possible. Information about the submission process and the Census Bureau's media campaign can be found here. The Census Bureau's media vendor, Team Y&R, is accepting proposals here.
We will keep you updated as we work with federal agencies to urge them to direct their ad buys to local broadcasters. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact your NAB Membership Concierge at (202) 775-2555 or membership@nab.org.
NAB Sponsors Investigative Journalism Conference
In communities across the country, broadcasters provide Americans' most trusted news. Local stations' award-winning investigative units uncover government corruption, question those in power and expose those who abuse their positions.
NAB is a proud to support the Investigative Reporters & Editors (IRE) as a sponsor of the annual event's broadcast track. #IRE20 will take place September 21-25.
Journalism Grants Available to Fill Gaps in Local Coverage
Report for America, an organization that places journalists into local newsrooms to report on under-covered issues and communities, has opened applications for news organizations interested in hosting journalists in their newsrooms for up to three years beginning next June. Report for America will cover half of these reporters' salaries (up to $25,000 per year).
