Marketplace

David Brown
Marketplace is public radio's only national series about business, the global economy, and finance. This award-winning program is not narrowly focused on the stock market or personal finance, as some programs are. Instead, Marketplace takes a very broad view of business, defining its content as any story that deals with money ... most of the world's stories do. Marketplace distinguishes itself from general news programming more by its approach to the world's news -- it looks at the world through the lenses of business and economics.

All Things Considered

Melissa Block, Michele Norris, and Robert Siegel
At 5 p.m. ET on May 3, 1971, the first All Things Considered went on the air. In the three decades since, almost everything about the program has changed -- the hosts and producers, the length and time of the program, the equipment used, and the audience. But one thing remains the same: the determination to get the day's big stories on the air, and to bring them alive through sound and voice.
