I agree with the decision to oust Ken Stern. He has done great things, and will still do more great things, but his time at NPR needed to end. Time for change with both parties. As I see it, it's a very big catch 22; where NPR's content is easy and free to access for the user, but NPR relies on the stations that distribute that content who are the financial life source of NPR. However, I have been reading this blog for quite a while now, I know that NPR will see great advances in technology as Dennis takes over the helm. Go get 'em and best of luck!
