Nielsen Co. Ceases Publication of Radio & Records

Nielsen Co. today (June 3) announced that it was ending publication of Radio & Records, known in the radio business for the past 36 years as R&R. Publication ceases immediately.

In specially called “Town Hall Meeting” for R&R staff across the country, publisher Howard Appelbaum told employees that it was a “tough decision” but that the magazine’s “macro did not work” in this economic climate. He said “all jobs are eliminated” and that some parts of R&R, such as airplay charts, would be included in Billboard magazine, another Nielsen publication.

Appelbaum,
