Thanks for the article-
I do not listen to much of the corporate media, radio or tv...
But there has been a huge change in Radio over the last 10-15 years
Between the death of commercial classical and jazz stations, and a corresponding migration to the left end of the dial of those collections/libraries, and in some cases personnel, and the ratcheting up of a primary NPR/public station in a given metro market, we seem to be loosing the variety that radio used to offer.
[here in Nor-Cal, KQED in the Bay area has become a mega station with mergers in Sac and Napa/Eastern Sonoma]

Obviously if the real goal is to monetize everything so that some ONE can make lots 'o $$$, then the future of radio is doomed, but that may be the least of our losses...

Happy Listening
