Ohmygod…Scott, do you still have a job?
This morning, I turned on Weekend Edition Saturday, and Linda Wertheimer (a voice I appreciate and enjoy) said, “Scott Simon is away.” My immediate reaction was, “Ohymygod, Kernis fired another one!”
A reminder - withold your support from your local public radio station this year, and let them know why. Certainly the executives at NPR are too pig-headed to allow common sense to rule in the case of Bob Edwards (like most narrow-minded executives who cannot actually do anything of benefit, these guys are not going to admit to having made a really dumb decision), but maybe by putting pressure on the local stations we can force some changes in the executive suites of NPR itself.
