How Underwriting Works
The major difference between a public and commercial media operation is underwriting.  A commercial radio or TV station broadcasts advertising paid for by their advertisers.  In the case of public media however, program underwriters in the form of businesses, foundations, and other individuals or organizations make contributions in support of programming.  While they are recognized for their gifts on the air, contributors’ messages are set in a format uncluttered with excessive commercial announcements.
