Re: [Swprograms] Current edition of BBCWS "Over to You" worth a listen

[<jfiglio1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I wonder what BBCWS management's reaction will be.  In the past in reaction to criticism, they've attempted to further explain their justifications for the path they've chosen rather than to re-think and re-form.  Perhaps the fact that these reactions are coming from Africa and presumably from listeners within their "target" demographic will produce a different response.
