Business Review to Launch Nationally

The award winning Business Review, a radio series airing for seven years on Central Texas NPR station, KWBU-FM 103.3, is being released to the national public radio market September 1, 2012.

Each week Business Review will have the latest in business trends and research -- both nationally and globally. The program runs two minutes in length and will be delivered monthly to 435 NPR stations, in addition to 200+ other radio stations across the U.S.

Business people will hear valuable nuggets of information straight from the experts who are researching and writing about a wide range of relevant topics," said show host C.J. Jackson. "Now the program will be available to listeners in more market areas.

Multiple episodes are delivered to stations every month, and are designed to be used as one episode for each week. Stations may run the program episode as often as they like during that week. The program specific descriptions for the first delivery in September are listed below.

Business Review won a 2012 Communicator Award in May. The production team has won numerous awards for PBS programs, including NETA's Best of the Best Production, Best Documentary and multiple EMMYs. Hosted by CJ Jackson, it is written and produced by Jessica Denk and executive produced by Renée McKay and Joani Livingston.

The Business Review is a production of KWBU, Livingston+McKay LLC and the Hankamer School of Business at Baylor University.
