I got here via a link from Google alerts. (I've set up "WCRB" as an alert. "Why" is a long story--via the Maine WBACH network and its "top hits" format). I know you know that WGBH isn't NPR. It's WGBH, and not NPR, that changed its format, and it's WGBH, not NPR, that's programming WCRB/99.5 But it's an important distinction for a casual follower of the WCRB transition. |

Scads,
It is not truly important if WGBH is under the NPR umbrella of not. However I do not think you are correct. WGBH (as well as WBUR) are Boston's NPR Station – they announce it all time and WGBH is PBS station. I do not even know how to argue it – I think it is too self-evident – you might go to WGBH, PBS or NPR sites and confirm it. I do not know exactly how they share recourses and financing. I know they share human recourses, programs and material. If you know something that I am missing then please educate me.
