EAS: The Sound of Protection PDF Print E-mail
Thursday, 20 October 2011 13:04
We all know that sound...like a dial up modem in the middle of your favorite TV or Radio show.  It's one of those things we've all come to know, but fortunately, never had to use.  Like testing your smoke alarms...but keeping the whole nation safe!  
 
 
The Emergency Alert System provides quick, actionable warnings to the general public via Radio and Television broadcast stations as well as cable companies.   Federal law requires broadcasters and cable companies to have the necessary equipment installed for delivering presidential (national) alerts.  Fortunately, we have never had a need for such an alert.
 
ISBA: Now your one stop source for industry news PDF Print E-mail

Using the very technology all broadcasters have come to depend on, ISBA's new website is going to link to some of the most recent and topical streams that can affect us right here in Idaho.  NAB series, FCC rulings, technology updates...even streams from other broadcasters that report on the issues that we all need to be aware of.

 

This is a great way to stay connected with what is going on in our industry and we see it as our job to bring the highlights to our members.  For instance, here is an independent report about the "FCC Fines News Stations for Running Propaganda as News" (4 months ago)

 

 

The ISBA is committed to bringing the most recent and impactful information to the broadcasters of Idaho.  Once these feeds have been posted for a short time, they will be archived for members to access using their membership log-in.

 
Getting Your Message Out Through the NCSA Program PDF Print E-mail


If you are a non-profit or state agency and want to get your message across in a more organized manner, the NCSA program might be the answer.

Organizations that operate in the public interest, i.e. non-profits and state agencies who have a message that must be seen and heard in an organized manner can ask to participate in our NCSA program.

Under this program, a non-profit or government agency funds the ISBA to distribute their material. In return, the agency receives advertising time donated by the Idaho broadcasters.

The pre-produced spots for both radio and TV are delivered to the ISBA office. They are then distributed to every commercial radio and TV station with a request that they be used in the station’s regular advertising time slots (usually 1/3 in prime time) for the duration of the campaign.
