“We’re incredibly excited to share with you today that WNYC Studios’ five-part podcast series ‘The Divided Dial,’ from WNYC’s On the Media has been honored with a Peabody Award, one of broadcast media’s most prestigious honors.

Hosted and reported by award-winning multimedia journalist Katie Thornton and edited by On the Media Executive Producer Katya Rogers, “The Divided Dial” charts the growth of broadcasting company Salem Media Group — a once small, conservative Christian radio network that expanded its reach in far-right media through the hard to monitor, difficult to fact check, and minimally scrutinized medium of talk radio.

  Of the series, the Peabody Awards Board of Jurors said:

“Synthesizing dogged business reporting with a clear sense of how right-wing talk radio has fundamentally reshaped the Republican Party, Thornton and Rogers have produced a remarkable, vital, and unparalleled document that outlines the uneasy conflict over truth in American civic life.”

As recent headlines demonstrate, the influence and impact of far right media is growing. If you haven’t had a chance to hear this timely and urgent series, we hope you’ll tune in to WNYC 93.9 FM on Saturday, May 20, 12 - 4pm, when you can hear it in its entirety, or listen anytime in the On the Media feed, available wherever you get your podcasts.”

Driving home was weird because @nprfreshair was airing bits of old Larry Wilmore interviews and for a hot minute I thought he'd died (he didn't!). He has such a soothing interview voice... It made me sleepy, which is not good on the highway.
