ENDORSEMENTS

LISA BITTMAN
Director of National Underwriting, American Public Media
DRI’s attention to detail, their ability to find our audience, and to communicate back to us makes them an excellent research partner. I can think of no better way to communicate how pleased we are with them than to say we entrust them with researching our top shows. The research they have provided for these programs has been instrumental in the growth in the underwriting of our shows and in achieving a better understanding of our audience.

CONRAD LUMM
Product Marketing Director,
Bangor Daily News
DRI’s polling provided valuable insight into how residents of a state uniquely sensitive to climate change think about what's going on around them. It gave us a solid basis for talking with our audience about what climate change means to them. That would have been extraordinarily hard to get at without DRI’s hard work.

LYNN TILLOTSON
