	KEXP - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		KEXP (formerly KCMU) is a public radio station based in Seattle, Washington, that specializes in independent and alternative rock programmed by its disk jockeys.
		In 1981, KCMU turned to its listening audience for public funding after the UW's budget was cut.
		KCMU hired its three full-time paid DJs in 1996, a move that cost several volunteer DJs and led to further complaints from some listeners who decried what they perceived as commercialization of the non-commercial radio station.

		KCMU started about as small as possible - powered by 10 watts and transmitted from a tower on top of McMahon Hall, its range was six miles on a good day.
		KCMU management pushed for more professional programs, and in 1992, nine DJs were displaced by programming changes.
		KCMU fans are now worried that the music could be the next thing to go.

	disinformation \| have you ever been experienced?
		When KCMU succumbed to a "partnership" between the University of Washington, its broadcast license holder, and the EXPerience Music Project, the station lost its historic identity in the process.
		KCMU has been a leader of Internet broadcasts in recent years, developing a worldwide following by streaming its programming live in four different formats from its Web site, thanks to substantial grants from EMP-linked sources.
		Now that the KCMU call sign has been eliminated in the "partnership", this cultural legacy has been consigned to the "dustbin of history." This decision may suit EMP's owners just fine; after all, it is a music history museum.

		Also doing a show at KCMU was Bruce Pavitt (who had attended Evergreen State College), and the two formed a partnership that became Sub Pop, the most influential "indie" record label of the last three decades.
		Thayil's own show on KCMU is best remembered by other jocks as "eclectic" but it reflected what Henschel describes as "his personal favorites." It was that ability to go out on a limb--a creativity only allowed at the time on college radio--that helped support a revolutionary new style of music.
		The list of KCMU volunteers in the late '80s (most of whom were students) reads like a who's who of the Seattle music industry in the '90s.

	KCMU 90.3 FM, Seattle
		KCMU has actual DJs that actually live in Seattle and aren't piped in from some central command marketing center somewhere.
		KCMU, however, caters to everyone and is still the only station in Seattle that mixes hip hop and rap in with everything else it plays during its numerous and excellent variety mix shows.
		KCMU's Richards is an atypical radio personality, relying solely on his taste in music to build a following.

		KCMU would not be close to what it is today, if it existed at all, if not for these ideals.
		KCMU has been commendable in including it among its offerings for several years.

		Herndon, a KCMU volunteer for more than three years, was outraged by the decision.

		Pacifica's executive producer, Julie Drizin, said KCMU's decision to drop the news is indicative of ominous changes unfolding in radio.

	Paul Allen Seizes KCMU (April 11, 2001)
		The point here is not to begin a witch hunt, but to determine why a public asset created to serve the public, without regard to commercial pressures, is no longer doing so, and what are the steps needed to return that asset to its rightful owners.
		Media interviews concerning the changes included numerous assurances by KCMU management and representatives of Allen that there would be no changes in programming.
		About a year ago, it was only a matter of days before KCMU was scheduled to move to The Ave, (big sister KUOW was already moved in and got first dibs on the bed).

		In addition, the intent is to have all of KCMU's volunteers gone by the end of the fiscal year, and to hire a full-time ad sales person for KCMU (remember, this is non-commercial radio!).
		But for many years KCMU has appealed for public donations and volunteer help on the premise of being a community station.
		In the meantime, we're happy to have the air time on KCMU, but we'd be much happier on a station run by and for the public--like "public" radio should be.

	Seattle Weekly - news: New experience
		KCMU becomes KEXP as a university-run station partners with Paul Allen's rock museum.
		For KCMU, such collaboration became necessary when the station was split off from KUOW and the University Relations department in late 1999, and became part of the school's Computing and Communications department.
		EMP also gave him and KCMU a new home outfitted with the latest in technology, including an all-digital studio equipped with fresh-from-the-boxes Technics turntables, a rack of Denon CD players, and a 16-input, all-digital recording studio for hosting and taping live performances.

		In the mid-'90s, KCMU, the Univ. of Washington student station that had given just about all your "Seattle Scene" superstars their first airplay (and where I'd DJ'd for a year), was the subject of a sort of palace coup by UW administrators.
		KCMU would henceforth be run by a paid staff instead of volunteers; its on-air delivery would be slicked up.
		While details are still sketchy, the rumor mill and the local news media have been awash in speculation about KCMU's future.

		Programming-wise, KCMU is still its wonderfully unpredictable self.

		Halfway through fiscal year 2003 nearly two-thirds of states have had to implement or are planning a second round of Medicaid cuts, according to a report released this week by the Kaiser Commission on Medicaid and the Uninsured (KCMU).
		In addition to the survey of states, KCMU also released a new report examining how seven states coped with budgetary problems during the last year.
		The book describes four pivotal aspects of how the Medicaid program operates - who it covers, what it covers, how it is financed, and how it is administered.

	Coverage & Access \| Treating Uninsured Will Cost $125B by 2004, Including $41B in Uncompensated Care, Study Says - ...
		The study, by Urban Institute researchers Jack Hadley and John Holahan, updates previous KCMU reports and measures the direct cost of care if all the uninsured were provided coverage and used the health care system at rates comparable to the insured population.
		The study reflects the potential increase in overall health spending directly attributable to the uninsured, but it does not take into account additional costs that could be incurred through major health reform proposals.
		The study states, "When one considers the modest share of this spending to the nation's economy and the long-term economic benefit of good health, $48 billion appears to be a sound investment" (KCMU release, 5/10).

	90.3 KEXP - tribe.net
		It seemed as KCMU may have never recovered to me. Outside its speciality shows it seems that the regular KEXP programming is focusing more and more narrowly on melodic "indie" rock.
		One was that there is some cool programming in the evenings or on the weekends and it would be nice to see more of that during the daytime.
		For me it was much better it had both a higher energy level and was more eclectic, which is exciting for me as a musician and a listener.

	Paul Allen's support is new music to KCMU ears (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The financial support, including rent-free studio space and an as-yet-undetermined contribution to its operating costs, will propel KCMU into a growth spurt unlike anything in the eclectic public station's history.
		The partners in the project say the arrangement will allow the station to branch out into exciting new areas of music and technology, but some worry that the growth and Allen's involvement will sap the station of its edge and its format of music largely excluded from commercial stations.
		The large infusion of cash will allow the old KCMU to grow beyond the college-based public radio station it is today, said Ron Johnson, vice president for Computing and Communications at the UW.
