WCAI in Woods Hole, Mass., has teamed up with a community radio station in Cornwall, England, on the project "Falmouth to Falmouth."
While some stations are welcoming the show, other programmers are wary of furthering public radio's relationship with for-profit producers.
“We believe that bringing production and distribution under the same roof will provide a more streamlined process for our station partners and be a seamless experience for our listeners,” said an APMG executive.
“People really felt the value of the station to a greater degree during the pandemic and wanted to make certain that the station had the funding it needed to not just survive but thrive,” said Brenda Barnes, CEO of KING FM in Seattle.
