Cue Sheet – December 30th, 2005

THE LISTENERS STRIKE BACK

    Just checking in long enough to point you to an amusing (from our distant perspective) article from the Chicago Tribune:

    Hell hath no fury like that of a scorned National Public Radio fan--especially in Detroit, where listeners angry over recent programming changes have gone to court, charging the city's NPR station with fraud.
    The fury in Detroit over program changes at WDET-FM has listeners claiming they were tricked into contributing money to the station during a pledge drive while station operators were secretly planning to junk locally produced programming and replace it with national talk and public affairs shows.
    You'll find the whole tale here.
