"A slow-moving bureaucracy. An antiquated business model. A horde of
upstart competitors. Can National Public Radio survive?"

An interesting look at the antiquated US public radio in the midst of
overall declines in terrestrial radio. I don't know if I agree that
podcasts are a reason for the declining NPR audiences. (Despite living
on the internet since 1993, I just don't care for podcasts, past or
present.) In my opinion, the program content and presentation is
stupefying dull. Your mileage may vary. :)
