Another brick in the wall.... Seems like just yesterday that services
like Metro and Shadow set up shop and became opportunities for local
stations to release their in-house staff and go with a contractor to
provide talent for once core services like news and traffic.
And today, that service takes a hit. I have an idea. That NOAA weather
radio computer generated voice that has taken hold? See if 'he' has
time in his schedule to run down the latest headlines.
