Brian Oake dismissed from The Current

MPR is receiving some big backlash over this. Many people are cancelling their sustaining memberships over this. And since the management seems to value corporate sponsorship over the listeners, maybe it's time to blow up the station and go commercial.

It's hard not to see this as a "we have to protect our relationship with First Avenue" move. Had this been about a club that wasn't also a sponsor he probably would have been fine.
 
The Coffee Break discussion page which is usually bustling with chatter and suggestions was practically silent except for the occasional request to have members cancel their membership. But I did turn in to Mary Lucia's shift which filled with tributes to Brian, someone who she has work with for 25 years.
