Perhaps a more fitting punishment...coupled with some cuts...would be a mandate from congress that NPR must provide twenty hours a day of culture, classical music, opera, jazz and poetic readings. If you handicapped these guys to the point where the news angle was worthless...then they’d all pack up and leave...thus bringing “real change” to NPR. I’d also suggest moving NPR headquarters from DC to the middle of Iowa as well...but 98 percent of the team would never move.

If we could guarantee it would be 100%, it would be an even better thing!
