in the most recent issue of harper's magazine is yet another article about how evil clear channel is.
of course, i couldn't agree more, and thought it was a really well-written article. after i turned the last page, though, i found a second essay about clear channel that resonated even more deeply.
this second article deftly equated local radio with local food. it spotlighted radio station WDEV and farmer's diner, both in vermont.
what the radio station and the diner both have in common is a passion for keeping things very local. on WDEV you can actually hear local councilmen and high school girls basketball games. and the farmer's diner only sells food that is grown or raised within a 60-mile radius of the restaurant.
it was a beautiful piece of writing, and i hope you all get a chance to read it.
