We’re launching “The Mediavore” today, and we’re excited about where it’s headed.

Public media listeners and viewers have more content available to them than ever before. Hundreds of stations streaming 24/7, and a wealth of talk, newsmagazine and music shows that far exceeds the capacity of local station schedules, and time available to listen.

The Mediavore is designed to weed through the content each day and highlight/aggregate the really great stuff that listeners and viewers shouldn’t miss. It’s launching with a heavy tilt toward news/talk, but we expect to balance it over the next few months with more music and cultural content. We’re also looking to beef up our exploration of content produced by local stations, and we will add much more video content. Our current output is 20-25 posts a week - I expect this to double over the next few months.

Keeping in mind how much work is ahead, we’re still happy to be where we are at launch, and we hope fans of public radio and television will find it useful.

The Mediavore is a service of Louisville Public Media.
