They got along for decades with only three or four paid employees, and without a lot of expensive network programming. If economics forced WYSO to return to being an old-school community radio station, that could be a good thing for Yellow Springs and the new college.

But, I wonder what this means for the bigger picture.<br><br> The University, which is having to support to Antioch Midwest, because it is in big financial trouble, is obviously divesting itself of WYSO. This is good news for Yellow Springs, because it was long feared that the University would sell its license to some out-of-town entity. The investment it made recently in new studios probably put that to rest anyway.<br><br> But the College is also on shaky financial ground. Is this a case of "out of the frying pan and into the fire?" Does this actually put WYSO in greater jeopardy? And what else does this mean for Midwest? Is this a sign that the University is looking to pull out of Yellow Springs?<br><br>Stay tuned... And support WYSO!Virgil Herveyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05676973528656199800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1194623735250607631.post-11684272431373499432012-12-10T11:18:19.999-05:002012-12-10T11:18:19.999-05:00Great news!Great news!lisargoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16222486739146267700noreply@blogger.com
