Re: [Swprograms] WBUR switched off the BBCWS during Monday's strike

I certainly understand why WBUR would react as it did, but...

Actually, it was nice to once again hear the greater variety in 
programming afforded by the strike.  It was like "the good old days" 
when the WS was more committed to being a full service broadcaster.  
On the way home from work, I heard a repeat of one of the 
excellent "Heritage" series programs and then Outlook on schedule but 
with an interesting half-hour retrospective interview with Yoko Ono.  

Yessir, this listener might just be looking forward to the next bout 
of "industrial action"...
