"Several people within NPR said the network has been planning scenarios for alternative levels of job cuts, though no plans are currently set. Executives also are trying to figure out the degree to which the network could rely more heavily on reporters from local stations for national coverage, staffers said. (They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly on internal matters.) The ability to do so could be complicated by two factors: the fact that covering the same story often requires a different emphasis for local audiences familiar with a subject, as opposed to a national audience; and the additional strain on local newsrooms, which are often quite small, as a result of the loss of federal funds."

Tomorrow. 3pm. One hour of music chosen entirely by me, which should worry you.
theaardvark's radio show on #LichfieldRadio. Eclectic. Unfiltered. Arguably professional. Objectively irresponsible.

Unfortunately for the world, I'm doing a live DJ set tonight at 9pm. Only a vague idea of what I might play. Some of it will end up on Lichfield Radio on Tuesday. Some of it absolutely will not. You can watch either way.
As @Winni4u just reminded me, this morning's Snoozy Breakfast Show on Lichfield Radio is available to listen to "on demand" as they say in the biz.
We fell down a rabbit hole of "music from 1970s films" this morning, and didn't make it back out until 3 tunes before the end.
We also played a still-in-production fresh cut from Gorstey Lea AKA, a huge privilege.
This and all the Snoozy Breakfast Shows can be listened to at...
