MJT Sharpens The Axe

NPR would survive, they’d stream and continue their podcasts.
Local stations would get wiped out in 3rd tier cities, maybe some 2nd tier too.
It’s probably time though. The world’s moved on from radio for the most part.

My local guys:

The national feed stuff is okay for some things, but the news is biased and the nationwide programs often are. Local stuff is usually better.
Personally, I'd like to see the guys down south https://www.wwno.org/ merge with RRR.
There's a lot going on in this state, that could be recorded and broadcast... Local symphonies, college concert bands, smaller college athketics, high school playoffs, bar bands, live music at festivals. They could partner with LPB and simulcast programs such as the governor's news conferences, local &state politics. I think they could do some more original stuff in talk shows/podcasts working with some of the college communications programs.
And the national stuff would still exist. Maybe they could pick and choose.
I'm just spitballing here...Trying to figure out how to keep the stations on the air with more local programming with a shoestring budget.
