		Early network radio rules prohibited the use of recorded sound in broadcasts, so the earliest radio documentaries (in the 1930s) were a hybrid between documentaries and drama.
		But by the 1960s the format was revived on public radio, in particular on stations owned by the Pacifica Foundation, and the creation of National Public Radio in the 1970s, with the subsequent growth of the public radio system, gave radio documentaries a secure home once again.
		Radio documentaries take us back to the time before the written word existed, when oral storytelling was the way history was communicated from one generation to the next.

	MediaGuardian.co.uk \| Media \| Damazer gets Radio 4 top job
		Mr Damazer has very little radio experience, but the appointment will be seen as a robust decision by BBC management as he was one of former director general Greg Dyke's key allies in the battle against the government before and during the Hutton inquiry.
		"Radio 4 is in terrific shape and my challenge is to cherish it, sustain it and make sure it remains the home for intelligence, flair and wit," said Mr Damazer, who is out of the country on holiday.

	SD : Knowledge : The first mile of connectivity: Using state media to promote sustainable, democratic development
		After it was broadcast, each of the Karabalta documentaries was presented to a focus group of government officials, to stimulate discussion of the topic at an official level, and introduce the idea that radio can be used as a "bottom-up" communicator, passing ideas from the grass-roots to decision-makers.
		In the documentary on pensioners, for example, the team decided to portray a day in the life of an elderly retired person, charting all his or her problems, including lack of adequate food and clothing, poor-quality health care, and loneliness.
		The team replied that the documentary was not made to challenge the authority or knowledge of the officials, but rather to offer them a different perspective on the problem: the perspective of the people they were supposed to be helping.

	History of Radio Doc.
		Inspired by British and Canadian programming, radio documentary producers in the United States survived at small, volunteer-staffed educational radio stations, the preponderance of which were based at the old land-grant colleges and state universities of the Midwest.
		Much of the best radio documentary work produced during the 1950s and 1960s continued to come out of the government-sponsored British and Canadian broadcasting systems, which put sufficient money into radio to allow their producers to create more ambitious programs than could their American counterparts.
		And most of the audio documentary productions of the 1950s and 1960s, broadcast only locally or distributed through a fledging educational radio system, were quickly bulked or dumped in a closet where they were quickly forgotten.
