DEBORAH PARENTI, Radio Master

DEBORAH PARENTI was inducted into the National Radio Hall of Fame on November 2, 2023, three weeks before this conversation. It's easy to see why. She's as bright and energetic as they come. With a deep career in broadcast management, she is now the publisher of Streamline's Radio Ink. Here Parenti talks about why radio will never die, but she's also brutally honest about some of the industry's serious problems. She says radio needs to put its money where its mouth is and get back to what it does best.
