Atlantic Public Media’s Executive Director, Jay Allison, was quoted in the article, but he had a lot more to say about the subject, beginning with this:
“Over the years, public radio has been a magnet for talented and idealistic people. It provides a context of mission, not marketplace. It draws producers committed to journalism, education, art, social issues, a full range of perspectives, and the free voice. It’s a social engine driven by the energy of those who believe in it. Without that central mission, the energy dissipates. With a commercial focus, driven by metrics of popularity, it will be entrepreneurs — not necessarily driven by high ideals — who thrive.”
