When I heard the opening to Oregon Considered, my heart beat faster. I looked forward to that news block. Part of it was the mix. Part of it was the disciplined, economical approach. The in-depth stories. April Baer and all the staff that shaped a great news show.

I still haven't quite forgiven OPB from axing Performance Today. Now this. What's next?

I think it's a big mistake. Long form radio (This Life, etc) is becoming increasingly popular and driving people back to radio. I really listen to radio. I turn the lights out.

I think it's great OPB is trying new formats and approaches, but I don't like what I'm hearing. Give me long form. Nobody else is.
