[stylist] I need your help

[Donna Hill]

Hi Judith,
This sort of list with actual contact people goes for huge bucks from 
folks like Vocus.  I believe the newswire services have options for 
radio as well -- PR Newswire and PRWeb, for instance. Again, they cost. 
I had a subscription to Bill Stohler's monthly newsletter about PR that 
included contacts, but I often found them outdated within weeks of 
getting them and never had any success promoting the Performing Arts 
Division through them.

Here is a free resource  (Fair's Media List) with some information, but 
it looks like it's targeted at the average citizen who wants to contact 
the media rather than PR professionals. There's a Heading for radio 
shows down the page:
http://www.fair.org/index.php?page=111

Also, this is the site for the PA radio stations. I imagine there's one 
for every state as there is for newspapers. Getting the contact 
information involves going to the links, when provided, and searching 
the station's site:
http://www.shgresources.com/pa/radio/

Other than Googling, word of mouth and the like, I don't know of any way 
to get a list. When I do mailings, I spend many hours putting together 
the information. You should also be aware that not every station is 
listed. Also, are you looking for on air only or internet radio talk 
shows as well? What are you trying to do? Perhaps monitoring journalist 
query lists like HARO, Reporter Connection and Pitch Rate -- all of 
which are free and come as daily  e-mails -- would help.
