All Things Considered
On May 3, 1971, at 5 p.m., "All Things Considered" made its debut on 90 public radio stations across the country. Over the past forty-plus years, the program has seen numerous changes. This includes shifts in hosts, producers, editors, and reporters, as well as variations in the show's length, the technology used, and the audience it reaches. Despite these changes, one aspect has remained constant: each episode presents the day's most significant stories, thoughtful analyses, and engaging features that explore both the quirky and mainstream elements of arts, culture, music, and entertainment, all delivered through captivating sound. Today, "All Things Considered" is the leading afternoon news radio program in the United States. It airs every weekday for two hours, hosted by Ailsa Chang, Audie Cornish, Mary Louise Kelly, and Ari Shapiro. In 1977, the show expanded to include weekends, featuring a one-hour edition on Saturdays and Sundays hosted by Michel Martin. During each broadcast, listeners hear stories and reports from NPR journalists and correspondents located throughout the U.S. and around the globe. The hosts engage with newsmakers and share their own insights, complemented by a diverse array of commentators.
