Subject: RE: Bob Edwards removed from Morning Edition
Looks like I bumped into the "submit" button too soon.

SO--back to the brief thought re: Guest Who is not a Bob Edwards Groupie.

Your comment that you cannot ---if you really did care for him---withhold money for NPR since you never donate anyway. You go on to say that you won't listen to the program in any case.

So--my thought is this: are the powers that be supposed to have been flattered if you did listen. And, when you did you never supported the programming in any case.   I recall some sort of cliche about "putting one's money somewhere---where was that?

As to interviews of substance on EM, ATC==and also OTM. Believe me there have been many---our local station (WNYC) calls such interviews and feature pieces "driveway moments".   And here I thought was alone in sitting in my car in the driveway wanting to hear the end of a great feature piece.

That is radio that grabs you---unlike so much else on the air today.

My comments of support for Edwards appeared earlier
