	PBPB \| Public Broadcasting PolicyBase
		NPR's financial problems, which resulted in an operating deficit of approximately $6.4 million for the year ended September 30, 1983, and the unanticipated need to borrow $7 million from CPB, occurred because the organization was not properly prepared for, and in fact, failed in its ambitious plan, known as Project Independence.
		NPR' s operations, as pointed out in a management consultant's report to the Board in January 1982, were informal, resulting in decisions made on incomplete or inaccurate information, lack of coordination in implementation of decisions, lack of monitoring of actions taken, and confusion regarding the authority and the responsibilities of key members of management.
		NPR management originally expected that a significant portion of the 1983 nonfederal grants and contributions goal of $7.2 would be achieved by obtaining two large grants in support of NPR Plus.

	AlterNet: MediaCulture: How Public Is Public Radio?
		A new FAIR study of NPR's guest list shows the radio service relies on the same elite and influential sources that dominate mainstream commercial news, and falls short of reflecting the diversity of the American public.
		At least 83 percent of journalists appearing on NPR in June 2003 were employed by commercial U.S. media outlets, many at outlets famous for influencing newsroom agendas throughout the country (16 from the New York Times alone, and another seven from the Washington Post).
		Though not a large proportion of NPR's sources, public interest voices were still about twice as common on NPR as on commercial network news, according to a FAIR study published in 2002 that found that such sources made up only 3 percent of voices on network news shows.

	Taking Charge of Federal Personnel
		Congress legislated personnel reductions of 270,000 FTEs from fiscal year 1993 baseline levels, to be achieved by FY 1997.
		This approach embodied such poor personnel policy, and was so costly to the Treasury and the retirement system, that it can only be explained as a political payment to federal unions to mute their opposition to downsizing.
		Decentralizing management and personnel policy works in the private sector because there is a financial bottom line against which to measure the success or failure of the efforts.

		Some managers at NPR member stations called the timing callous and clumsy, the Times reported, coming just eight months before Edwards's 25th anniversary as host and, perhaps more importantly, at the start of spring pledge drives at stations nationwide.
		NPR broke into the program with bulletins and began special programming at 10 that morning and went on to win several awards for its coverage.

		PBS (Public Television), NPR (National Public Radio), and the arts and humanities are facing major cutbacks in funding.

		More than a third (37 percent) of general public sources were not even identified by name — appearing in show transcripts as “unidentified woman No. 2” and the like.
