Thread Name: Mary Cliff 'Traditions' dropped from WETA FM
Subject: RE: Folklore: Mary Cliff Fired - WETA FM 'Traditions'
I used to listen; the best part was the opening with fiddles playing The Maiden's Prayer. Mary is a bit of a slow talker and she never seemed to be organized. She had time to play more music and less time looking for something. Actually, I imagine she has a shot at getting on at WAMU. They broadcast in HD now and Ray Davis is on every afternoon again. I wish they would bring Jerry Gray back with his old program. WAMU has Car Talk and all the news programming; back around September 11, 2001 WAMU and WETA were practically "simulcasting" the PBS news programming. It's good they went back to classical music.
