'''''Marketplace''''' is an American [[radio]] program that focuses on business, the economy, and events that influence them. The program was first broadcast on January 2, 1989. Hosted by [[Kai Ryssdal]] since 2005, the show is produced and distributed by [[American Public Media]]. Marketplace is produced in [[Los Angeles]] with bureaus in [[New York City|New York]], [[Washington, D.C.]], [[Portland, Oregon|Portland]], [[Baltimore, Maryland|Baltimore]], [[London]], and [[Shanghai]]. It won a [[Peabody Award]] in 2000.<ref name="peabody">[http://www.peabodyawards.com/award-profile/marketplace 60th Annual Peabody Awards] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240519134415/https://peabodyawards.com/award-profile/marketplace/ |date=May 19, 2024 }}, May 2001.</ref>

Besides the flagship daytime half-hour program, Marketplace also produces a companion show, the seven-and-a-half-minute-long ''Marketplace Morning Report'', hosted by [[David Brancaccio]], which airs on many public radio stations during the last segment of the [[National Public Radio|NPR]] program ''[[Morning Edition]]''.  The Marketplace team produces a number of [[podcast]]s, including ''Make Me Smart'', ''This Is Uncomfortable, The Uncertain Hour, How We Survive'', and ''Million Bazillion'', as well as podcast versions of the radio broadcast and extended podcasts built around regular segments from the radio show.

== History ==
''Marketplace'' was founded in 1989 by [[Jim Russell (journalist)|James Russell]] in [[Long Beach, California]].<ref>{{cite news | url=http://www.programdoctor.com/ | title=The Program Doctor | publisher=Jim Russell Productions | access-date=April 25, 2007 | archive-date=October 6, 2007 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071006030427/http://www.programdoctor.com/ | url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite web| url =http://savvytraveler.publicradio.org/about/bios/russell.shtml| title =Jim Russell General Manager, Marketplace Productions| website =They Savvy Traveler| access-date =April 22, 2016| archive-date =June 2, 2016| archive-url =https://web.archive.org/web/20160602101703/http://savvytraveler.publicradio.org/about/bios/russell.shtml| url-status =live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web| url =http://savvytraveler.publicradio.org/about/bios/yore.shtml| title =J.J.

The program survived through the help of the [[University of Southern California]] (USC), which acquired the show, and later, in 1990, with the underwriting of [[General Electric]].<ref name="USC" /> USC became the only university in the U.S. at the time to produce a daily news program distributed nationally.

In 2000, [[Minnesota Public Radio]] (MPR) acquired Marketplace Productions from USC.<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/minnesota-public-radio-acquires-marketplace-productions-72618767.html| title = Minnesota Public Radio Acquires Marketplace Productions| date = April 14, 2000| website = PR Newswire| access-date = April 22, 2016| archive-date = May 9, 2016| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20160509075458/http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/minnesota-public-radio-acquires-marketplace-productions-72618767.html| url-status = live}}</ref> This acquisition was the subject of a lawsuit by Public Radio International, which said it had not given its contractually required approval for the sale.<ref name=current>{{cite web| url =http://current.org/files/archive-site/rad/rad008pri.html| title =PRI risks lawsuit with parent MPR over Marketplace| last =Behrens| first =Steve| date =May 1, 2000| website =Current| access-date =April 22, 2016| url-status =dead| archive-url =https://web.archive.org/web/20160601034912/http://current.org/files/archive-site/rad/rad008pri.html| archive-date =June 1, 2016}}</ref>

=== ''Marketplace Morning Report'' ===
The ''Marketplace Morning Report'' is a seven-minute, thirty-second broadcasts that replace the business news-oriented "E" segment of [[NPR]]'s ''[[Morning Edition]]'' on subscribing public radio stations. The show has been hosted by [[David Brancaccio]] since 2013.<ref>{{Cite web |title=David Brancaccio |url=https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-brancaccio-7151284/ |access-date=April 5, 2023 |website=LinkedIn}}</ref> There are seven feeds of the ''Marketplace Morning Report'' from 5:51:30 a.m. ET to 11:51:30 a.m. ET, updated as news develops.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Broadcasts |url=https://www.americanpublicmedia.org/broadcast |access-date=April 5, 2023 |website=American Public Media |language=en-US |archive-date=April 4, 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230404151514/https://www.americanpublicmedia.org/broadcast |url-status=live }}</ref>

Because of the popularity of the ''Marketplace Morning Report'', NPR struck a deal with APM to incorporate the segment into the second hour of ''Morning Edition'', bringing the segment to all listeners, even if the station doesn't subscribe to ''Marketplace''.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.npr.org/about-npr/325489884/npr-and-apm-bring-market-place-morning-report-to-all-morning-edition-listeners|title=NPR and APM Bring Marketplace Morning Report to All Morning Edition Listeners|website=[[NPR]]|access-date=July 14, 2015|archive-date=July 14, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150714225304/http://www.npr.org/about-npr/325489884/npr-and-apm-bring-market-place-morning-report-to-all-morning-edition-listeners|url-status=live}}</ref>
