Ric Chetter - From Radioland
Episode 281: An Advertising Conundrum
Advertising used to be so simple. You get to tell an audience of a platform about your business or whatever you want (within reason) in exchange for a few bucks. Now it got weird. Terrestrial radio kind of screwed that up, frankly. They stiffed advertisers simply by chasing the dollar and sold out those dedicated to advertising their wares only to be left holding the bag.

In this episode, Ric takes a critical look at what is going on out there in one form of this business and how advertisers are still getting screwed.
