Salisbury University’s president is offering Delmarva Public Radio a new home and continued financial support if organizations not affiliated with the school help support stations WSCL-FM and WSDL-FM.
News of the university’s offer came following a Feb. 14 meeting of Salisbury University Foundation’s public radio advisory committee.
The foundation owns licenses for both stations, but under the proposal from University President Janet Dudley-Eshbach, that would change. She is asking the foundation to transfer license ownership to the university. The transfer could take 60 to 90 days to complete.
“This would give campus leadership day-to-day responsibility for DPR operations and, in turn, provide the stations access to more resources and expertise in areas such as management, budgeting and marketing,” Dudley-Eshbach said in a Feb. 14 press release.

Delmarva Public Radio? Great, just what I want to hear, more of Don Rush's Pro Obama, Pro abortion, pro democrat syncophantic leanings.
ReplyDeleteI know one thing, I keep a log of their advertisers and I make sure I go somewhere else.
Oh boy, so now the State of Maryland is going into the radio biz. They own everything else, so why not a radio station? They can air their propaganda with no objection at all...someday you may even be forced to listen to it!
ReplyDeleteI like turtles.
ReplyDelete6:44 sounds like you listen to the program often so you must like it.
ReplyDeleteThat's an awful lot of money for them to just read the Daily Times and The Delaware News Journal pretty much word for word on the air.
ReplyDeleteIs that Flo from the progressive insurance commercials?
ReplyDeleteWhen was public radio made part of the mission for the college? No wonder the tuition is skyrocketing.
ReplyDeleteHey SU, why don't you try in just spend more time giving real education to you graduates? They can't speak, can't think, can't add, can't relate in the real world, and you are most of the blame. Why is it there are so many jobs but so few prepared to get those jobs?
ReplyDeleteIf your mission is a university radio station, why stop there, why not university tv!
Can't say state run because that is already in place at wboc,
Here's what I don't get...they have two stations. One does news and one does classical music. So why must they run these stupid news programs on both stations?
ReplyDeleteI like hearing classical music, but I have to turn off the radio every morning and afternoon so I don't have to hear NPR.
From what I understand, the problem was that they couldn't raise enough funds. So, typical liberals that they are, they force everyone else to pay for their little project.
ReplyDelete10:27..."Little Project?" DPR has been on the campus of SU since the mid-80s. Where have you been? Students are able to work at the station and gain practical experience in their field of study. The President has offered this solution as rising programming costs are out weighing public support. DPR has an extensive and loyal listening audience. NPR programming is educational and even handed. I have never witnessed a greater gathering of Haters than on this site. Can any of you please find a sliver lining or happy spot even for a second?
ReplyDelete1027 you got that right. Lack of support, This entire community is sick of you leeching aging 60s commies spewing your anti constitution, baby murdering, anti gun , pro communist agenda over the airwaves that I pay for
ReplyDeleteAnd BTW someone please tell Susan Parker to stop defending rapists on facebook
ReplyDelete12:48 May I suggest a chill pill for that rage?
ReplyDeleteThe irony in all this is that you think that public radio is a one sided liberal medium.
ReplyDeleteAs a former journalist, I will tell you that public radio is about as fair and balanced as you are going to get.
Have you watched fox news or listened to rush limbaugh's show? Talk about one sided, propaganda filled, and twisted to the Nth degree of nasty.
Granted, I think Delmarva Public Radio is a sorry excuse for a public radio station, but I think the crazy people that come to this site hate anything that isn't on their side, or in their little lane of thinking.
Extremism is wrong, even if it mirrors your own beliefs....For instance, Ted Nugent and Piers Morgan are equally extreme in their beliefs and they just talk over each other until the next commercial break when they say they are just trying to have discourse on cable television.
Neither of them actually heard what the other said. Good public radio has always been able to bring opposite sides to the table for an honest discussion of the issue at hand.
You can't get that on TV, you don't get that in Newspapers, and you most certainly don't get it on FOX or RUSH.
So, with all that said, slow your roll on the hate you spew and look in the mirror.
Well that doesn't make a lick of sense. Limbaugh gives OPINIONS for a living, which just happen to be conservative. He's never claimed he was giving or reporting news. He reacts to a news story and gives his opinion on it. That you're offended by his opinions is your problem.
ReplyDeleteNPR is supposed to be objective about news. Sometimes they are, sometimes they aren't--we can argue all day about that. I think their news is not so bad. Diane Rehm, on the other hand, clearly has an agenda.
But to compare an opinion guy with a news organization is just stupid.
No hate here, just genuine mirth at your sophomoric high school debating skills. Forrmer journalist? Public Radio balanced? So let me deconstruct your tactics.
ReplyDeleteFirst tell a lie, but make it sound reasonable.
No hate, but to me, at this point in your existence, you are like a flea. I'm only showing all who you are, an expert liar, who may not even know when they lie.
Then you play the equivalency game. Conservative talk radio shows one side, so they are just as bad.
The difference is, your existence is being funded by me. The market has shown that what you do cannot sustain itself, locally or otherwise. So like a selfish child that you appear to be at this point, you use the government, the behemoth that you service, to extract financial blood from me.
Then when I cry out for justice, you twist and spin and call it hate.
I look in the mirror and I see that which pays for your very existence.
I look at you and see a fledgling thing, bleating for its wants, but unable to pay its own way.
No hate, I love you, I forgive you. You are like a child, but I want you to try to stand on your own, so that you may know freedom, as I know it.
