Mr. Brian Greene:

It is somewhat misunderstood that community radio is a starting point for careers in broadcasting. The majority of people stay in community radio after joining it. It is through involvement that we have got these young people. Young people, those aged between 15 and 24, are leaving radio at a rate of 3% per quarter in the JNLR. I am sorry but it is happening. It is not great. It is a bad story. It is called the "youth quake". They are, however, surviving in community radio because they are coming in as practitioners themselves. They are getting trained and their peers are listening to them. They are usually in college and they are taking an interest in media through studies. Through that they get to practise it and then consume it, both they and their peers.
