There is way too much emphasis on revenue. Not enough emphasis on
service. Radio should educate and inform, and have fun doing it.


But in order to do *any* of that, you need revenue first. These are
businesses, not non-profit charities.


There's a happy medium between corporate bottom line thinking and on-air
fundraising. Shareholders cost money. Atrium offices cost money. This
all takes away from the core function of a radio station, i.e. doing
good radio.
