Subj: [kl] KUER pulls the plug on classical music.
Date: Tue, 20 Mar 2001 14:01:38 -0500

After forty years of broadcasting GREAT classical music from KUER,
University of Utah, Gene Pack, host of four hours of classical music
programming has been told to hit the road.

Jazz is still on in the evenings, but if one form of music for the
enlightened is eliminated, that other form of music that appeals to a
similarly enlightened listening audience can't be long for this world.
The bean counters are winning.

I'm sad. I'm outraged. KUER was my link with music culture. I have let
them know. I don't think this decision will go by without a huge stink
and a lot of screaming by those who love good music.
