Oregon Media Insiders

So it really means that we're going to miss even more of NPR's Morning Edition and All Things Considered with OPB covering up national segments.
And if you used to like hearing the music that starts Morning Ed. or ATC, sounds like you're out of luck there too. Those identifiable ear grabbers are gone in Portland.

I'm already hearing the change. OPB's host talks over the Morning Edition intro at the top of the hour. OPB wipes out the Morning Edition music and hosts just so we can hear the local host tease national stories. Huh?

That's like KOIN covering up the ticking clock to have Jeff Gianola introduce all the stories at the top of CBS' 60 Minutes.

With the loss of Oregon Considered there's no longer a single timeslot to get a good thorough, LOCAL newscast. Now you'll have to listen over 2 or 3 hours just to hear all the stories they used to air in one 30 minute timeslot.

Good luck with that. I don't have that kind of time.
