KDHX CUTS AN IMPORTANT NEWS SOURCE
According to an informal community survey conducted by KDHX members this September, listeners and members of KDHX overwhelmingly favor bringing the award winning Democracy Now! back to its full hour broadcast five days a week on the radio station.
This response follows the decision by KDHX management to cut Democracy Now! airtime to a mere ten minute headlines broadcast Monday through Friday back in August (reported back on August 8 on the STL IMC newswire).
Many responding to the survey complained about cutting the news show 's broadcast time: "You can't get the full story on the world in just one hour, let alone 10 minutes," one person responded.

We will be doing a listener survey in the fall to learn about how our audience is using the new schedule, so be sure to look for it and tell us what you think.

"KDHX-TV" stiffs St. Louis IMC on a joint 'Media Training' project, scuttles the plans and breaks the deal, then 'shoots the messenger'... and the Board stuffs a protest and wreaks revenge.
A case study in local mediapolitix -- how collaborations crashed and burned, in a tailspin of events since Spring '07. This is the first public release of the paper-trail, an index of defining documents to date, just to put the facts on the table, and spur public debate.
To follow, Part II: The Story, with reflections on meanings for the media community.
