An issue with a lot people on the radio these days is they don’t have radio voices. Strong, clear, emphasis in the right place. Broadcasting programs used to include speech and vocal classes, and even with training a lot of students could not cut it. In the last six or seven years, having a ‘broadcasting’ voice seems to have been discarded as a job qualification. Maybe the decline in the industry means employers can’t be choosey. Or maybe audience expectations have changed and it’s not important anymore. But there has definitely been a decline.
