was good enough that the Commis
sion gave Jameson Broadcast, Inc. of
Columbus the go-ahead to promote
its other programs.
“The service providers are there,
but people don’t know where to go or
even who really knows where to go
for help,” said Trulee Burns, the 30-
year-old Jameson vice president who
has created New Age Radio.
On New Age Radio, she attacks
prejudices that equate aging with
senility.
“People just aren’t old at age 65
anymore,” one radio program proc
laimed. In 1884, 65-year-olds “were
something of an oddity,” but now
they are “just another number.”
In other programs, New Age
promotes a new support structure for
the elderly to replace family units
that no longer revere their seniors.
“Look to yourselves and your
neighbors, that’s what we re saying,”
Burns said. “A friendship network is
needed because you can no longer
rely on family structure. The only
way to get change is for people to get
together on their own.”
“We’d like to change the ideas of
listeners 35 and over,” Burns
said. “They have to start thinking
about old age and retirement. We re
all getting up there. Like at age 28
when you notice people will say
something like, ‘You really don’t look
that old. ”
