Change (Tracy Chapman)





Tracy Chapman's "Change" -- first appears on her album WHERE YOU LIVE.


Thank you to Dallas who is going through the site list and pruning.  FRESH AIR is being dropped.  It should have been dropped long ago.  We try to keep radio links but Terry Gross one of the most sexist women around -- Ann, Ava and I did several pieces tracking how few women qualified to be guests on Terry's show and how few women were part of her on air staff.  Of course, she's one on air male voice short in 2019 because -- shocker -- one was such a pig that outcry forced her to fire him.


In addition to FRESH AIR, other sites were removed.  Those sites were removed because they're no longer active.  Crying over MCCLATCHY's latest round of layoffs?  Don't bother.  It's been over ten years since they covered Iraq.  They get what they deserve.  They rode KNIGHT RIDDER's work to fame and did nothing to advance it.  Now they're in serious financial trouble and it's hilarious.


A no longer active site being removed was a site that didn't even have the old archives up.  So, FREE SPEECH RADIO NEWS, for example, hasn't done anything in two years but the archive remains there so it stays.

Dallas is also putting up a comic of Isaiah's at the top.  It'll be up for awhile (forever?) unless he changes it because I'm far too lazy to update things here.  So that'll be a new look and thank you to him for doing that and every thing else.
