"Winners of 2006 Alfred I. duPont-Columbia Broadcast News Award Announced"

This release puts WUNC's impressive award in better context than the item on the WUNC website. In addition, this release recognizes, by name, those at WUNC who participated in the making of the winning series:

"Emily Hanford, senior editor and producer; Paul Cuadros, Dawn Dreyer, Leda Hartman, Rose Hoban, Leoneda Inge, Rusty Jacobs, Michelle Johnson, Alison Jones, Jessica Jones, Susan Leffler, Laura Leslie, Amy Nelson, Paul Overton, and James Todd, producers; Sharon Ball, John Biewen, Cheryl Devall, Neenah Ellis, Deborah George, Maria Martin, Marcus Rosenbaum and Ben Shapiro, editors; George Boosey, program director; Joan Siefert Rose, general manager."

It would be nice to for WUNC to share this sort of thing with its listeners and supporters on the WUNC website. Well-deserved congratulations, no doubt, are to be shared by the entire team.

"Governor Mike Easley"

"Governor Mike Easley"

One might think that the full audio of the interview with Governor EASLEY would appear on the WUNC website. My own reaction to the interview is that it could have been done by his campaign staff. It is not exactly fully of hard-hitting and probing questions of the Governor.

"Melinda Penkava Steps Down as Host of The State of Things"

"Melinda Penkava Steps Down as Host of The State of Things"

One would think that the people who have signed up to receive e-mails with the upcoming content of the State Of Things might have been interested in seeing this press release, but I do not recall seeing it in any of those messsages.
