I do not think it says anything about society or apathy. The termination of live Friday broadcasts was not an objective natural event but a voluntary decision of a single NPR upper/mid echelon executive who just “do not give a damn”. If it is emblematic about anything then it emblematic not about classical music or about public interests in live broadcasts but about the stupidity and detachment of some corporate executive. Read my late comments in the Intelligencer to get my view on this subject. Let see what the Intelligencer will discover in a few days.
