Funny you should mention corporate underwriting, Marc. Dana Davis Rehm, from NPR, spoke at the April 15 BoD meeting. I forget what her position at NPR is. Anyway, Brandon asked her a question about the NPR business model for the future. She replied that NPR had gone way overboad in their dependence on corporate underwriting, and that future plans included more effort to develop funding sources that are more in keeping with the NPR mission.

 Hmm.

 Can't imagine why a transcript of those remarks is not available at the WYPR website.
