Don’t go, “WhadYa Know?”
Re “I Wasn’t Ready,” 3/10/2016: I have loved Michael Feldman’s show for nearly 30 years. I am going to miss this as part of my Saturday routine. What a shame that WPR did not try harder to keep the show on air. It certainly seems fishy and it is a terrible way to treat all who bring us this show.

So, WPR is canceling the show because only 100 stations are carrying it. That is BS. They should be able to produce a show even if only WPR is carrying it. What about the noon crop reports? If those don’t go viral on Twitter, they are canceled?

I am saddened by this. I guess their newest policy is to ax their most popular programs. Remember “Live at the Chazen”?

Correction and clarification
Last week’s article about the exercise start-up company WeightUp, “Heavy Lifting,” incorrectly noted that Edgewood College’s football team is using the device. The Edgewood High School football team is using it. The Bodgery, the subject of last week’s Emphasis, takes its name from the verb “to bodge”: “A quick and dirty job, something done very hastily,” rather than the related “bodging,” referring to woodcraft.
