Montana Muse Cancelled
a message from Lois Bent,
YPR General Manager and Program Director
"It was not easy decision, but because of a number of factors, we have
elected to discontinue Montana Muse. While we appreciate the comments of
those who have enjoyed this program, we must also take into consideration
the basic requirements of maintaining practical standards for timely, high
quality programming. Public Radio is an ever-evolving medium, both technologically
and content-wise. Programming is not determined by lobbying efforts on
the behalf of individuals. We encourage the creation of local programming
when it meets our criteria, and we always welcome responsible, civil discourse
from listeners."
