Marketplace—the best of the best
Marketplace—it's the fresh sound of business and economic news. Voted "Best of the Best" in 2003 by Media Life magazine, Marketplace has the largest audience for any business program in the United States on radio, cable or network television.
Smart, Distinctive Sound
This smart, hip and literate program is not only about money and business, but about people, local economies and the world—and what it all means to us. The only national daily business news program originating from the West Coast, Marketplace has four domestic bureaus—in New York, Miami, Washington, D.C. and Los Angeles, plus international bureaus in London and Beijing. Marketplace also maintains editorial relationships with The Economist magazine and Reuters news service, further expanding the program's resources and reach.
Award-Winning Journalism
The world-class reporting staff at Marketplace has won every major award in radio broadcasting since the show's inception in 1989, including the Peabody Award for Excellence in Broadcasting and Cable and the Alfred I. duPont-Columbia Journalism Silver Baton. The program benefits from the creativity, experience and international perspectives of Executive Producer J.J. Yore, Senior Producer Celeste Wesson and Host Kai Ryssdal.
Growing National Audience
Marketplace is a 30-minute, early-evening program that airs weekdays on more than 325 public radio stations nationwide. It is heard each week by more than 4.4 million listeners (up 63 percent from five years ago), an upscale, intellectually curious group comprised of business people, private investors and others who recognize the importance of the global marketplace. Its nine-minute sister program, Marketplace Morning Report, airs on weekday mornings and is heard by almost 4.9 million listeners (up 133 percent from five years ago).
