My first day at OEN was May 15, 2018. On my second day, I was asked to write copy for a radio spot on KXL. Our trade agreement with them was ending soon and we had two more radio spots left on the contract.
So, I met with our Executive Director and prepared a first draft. Then, I worked with our board member, a former staff writer for The Oregonian, to finalize the copy. Here are the two radio spots that ran on KXL for six weeks during the summer of 2018.

While the radio spot was running, we got a call from someone who said they had just heard the radio ad and wanted to sign up for an OEN membership.
