PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENTS
Do you have an announcement you would like to have posted on this page? Or, perhaps, your organization is doing something bigger, and you would like to hear your PSA broadcast on one of Clear Channels four radio stations in the Triangle?
Here, you will find the necessary guidelines for formulating and submitting an announcement to the Community Calendar, and to submit a request for a Public Service Announcement to be broadcast on the air.
Guidelines: A PSA is an outreach statement or by an organization, aimed at raising public awareness about a specific issue or event. The content must be non-commercial, and for the public good. Content provided within should include: general facts/information about the operation, and ways in which the public may collect more information and/or participate with the organization. Other criteria include: time and date if the message is time sensitive, plus geographic location(s) if the message is providing information to a specific event.
Clear Channel will broadcast PSA content (as our schedule will permit) between 10-30 seconds in duration. To improve the chances of more frequent exposure, scripts should be kept to 15, and 30 second formats. PSA's can be sent pre-produced, or Clear Channel Raleigh's production team can formulate a script based upon information provided by you.
