Thread Name: Bob Edwards removed from Morning Edition
Subject: RE: Bob Edwards removed from Morning Edition
If anybody ever writes a history of truly stupid decisions, the decision to replace Bob Edwards will rate alongside New Coke. Coca Cola was smart enough to reco.gnize their error. Will the NPR board do likewise? I am reminded Coca Cola stood New Coke until the demands of its customers became too loud to ignore.
I do agree it is time for a change at NPR: Jay Kernis and Bruce Drake should go. People with the capbility to make decisions as stupid as this cannot be trusted to be caretakers of a national treasure.
