Radio as a whole generated $14.3 billion from over-the-air and an additional $636 million in online revenue in 2014. A slight decline in over-the-air revenues in 2014 was more than offset by an increase in online revenues, resulting in an overall revenue increase for the nation’s radio stations collectively. And in honor of April Fool’s Day, some of our favorite radio and other pranks this year:

Angel Radio in the UK told listeners they had to cut down on the number of hours they listened due to too many listeners!
An Irish station ran a news story regarding the International Naturist Association holding a meeting in a local hotel – and even had the hotel manager came on air to “confirm”
The Los Angeles City Council voted to move the City of Santa Monica “closer”. In approving the measure to relocate the beachfront town, they cited the desire to move it “at least, like, 20 minutes closer”
Amazon reverted back to its long ago – text heavy design
