CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
The idea of establishing radio as any other mass medium is to educate, entertain, inform, and socialize ht people. H emphasis largely has to do with creating awareness, surveillance of the environment an correlation of the part of the society in responding to its environment and the transmission of cultural heritage (McQuil, 1998).
It also help in providing individual ward relaxation and reduction of tension, which makes it easier for people to cope with real life problems and for societies to avoid breakdown (MENDELSON, 1966) that radio has had a tremendous social impact, affecting attitudes and behaviors is undeniable.
In recognition of the unique nature of radio n term of simplicity, wider coverage bringing the world to those who cannot read, it’s immediacy (McLeish, 1978), it transmission in various local languages (Moemeka, 1981) as well as it contribution to the development of a nation, it is still the most incridable source of news and enlightened in most part of Africa (Okigbo 1999).
This made radio one of the most appropriate means of communication in any society beating literacy barriers (Moemeka 1981) in addition radio has that personal touch that lends urgency which one person elicits responses from another person by the use of symbols (Hall 1968). In radio programme, the communicator if far more opt to be a group then an individual. He is almost always a member of large group.
The guidance are made u of people who are different from each other. In a great many respect these difference may be social, educational economic, psychological, culture, ethical, religions, political, physical or intellectual. This wide diversity of backgrounds, skills, attitudes produces problem for radio programmers.
Hence, the subject matter of this work, IMPACT OF FREEDOM RADO PROGRAM “KOWANE GAUTA ON RESIDENT OF TUDUN WADA KADUNA”. Ht success of any communication is determined by response behavior of listener. The contribution a radio programme can make in behavior or attitude change depends largely on the content of the message.
In the 1930s, when media were well developed in the developed countries, they were credited with considerable power to shape opinion and belied change habit of life, mould behavior activity more or less according to the will of those who could control the media content (McQuil 1993).
Over time, this assumption was dated, researchers in media effects subsequently indicated that there are intervening variable relating to and from personal contact and social environment that affect the influence of media in attitudes and behavior change (McQuil 1993) providing a radio programme is a mixture of the ideal and the expedient (chester, et at 1978).
Thus, the program must have the ability to capture t he minds eye of the audience. The producer has to understand the people and the community he is directing the program to. By this, we can produce a programme that his audience can feel it might help them in taking decision about their life.
