Tune out and they will turn it off.
Just to state that after 2 decades I stopped listening to public radio as soon as I wake up and find the remote. Now it is a cd. First that damn fundraiser. Thank you GOP and gutless Democrats (Clinton era cuts as well). Then it's the constant bleak world they present. Yep the world is a fcuked up place and the US is probably responsible for most it but goddamn it I'd like to wake up and smile before going to work. I'll probably return to them when Bush is unemployed. Until then its just Car Talk, This American Life and Prarie Home Companion.
