Clearly they have in interest in the success of that show and are trying to give it a boost. It's probably less a comment on OS than on their own ambitions.

If so, I had an idea this morning about tagging all of the show pitches. That way, we can take a look as similar pitches, dust them off, and see if some of the pieces fit. In that manner, pitch threads should be a different section all together from the normal show centered conversation, maybe in a Since Sliced Bread type idea box?

WNYC dropped the show and I think XM also dropped it. Marketplace was on at 7ET yesterday on XM 133. Is there need to worry? A quarter mil is not a lot of money. I forgot to mention UMass also pulling out. Will the show survive? I’m worried. WNYC dropped the show and I think XM also dropped it. Marketplace was on at 7ET yesterday on XM 133.

Open Source is one of the few radio shows I've heard that successfully combines listener comments with intelligent analysis. The mediated posting system produces really good questions to be addressed during the show and I like the dialog that develops in the 'warming up' period. So a big cheer from a grateful listener.

I cannot think of a better, more relevant place to put Genius money. So often trailblazers clear the path for others success. This time your integrity and inventiveness get the nod. BRAVO!
