[Swprograms] KCRW

[jfiglio1@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

I see that this past Sunday's NY Times Magazine featured a story on 
Nic Harcourt, the host of "Morning Becomes Eclectic" at Santa Monica's 
KCRW public radio.  Some time ago, I posted something here about the 
program, recommending it and Mr. Harcourt highly.  It's nice to see 
the mainstream press catching up to we internet denizens, regardless 
of the time lag.  <g>

I'll paraphrase what I said then...  fantastic program; excellent host 
that serves as an informative, engaging and important guide through 
unfamiliar, but most worthy music and artists.

KCRW also is a fine example of a public station with a contemporary, 
even edgy, feel.  It blows away the notion of some that all public 
radio needs to be classical music or news based and buttoned-up or 
stodgy.  More non-comms should emulate it.
