Shift reflects national trend
KANU reduces airtime, staff
By Sean Demory Kansan staff reporter
In the wake of rising expenses, KU-financed public radio station KANU has been forced to reduce staff and on-air time.
The station's financial difficulties are part of a national trend. Many public radio stations have suffered drastic cuts in funding. They have cut programs and, in some cases, folded as the flow of federal funds has slowed.
Jim Stogsdill, a financial analyst for Administrative Affairs, said that the station had a projected shortfall of about $198,000. To avoid this, Stogsdill said several of the part-time announcers were let go and programming between midnight and 5 a.m. has been cut.
"Travel allowances and
the equipment budget has been cut down until the budget is stabilized," Stogsdill said.
Stogdill said the station was planning to automate its overnight programs at the beginning of April, which means that prerecorded programming will replace live announcers.
Full-time announcers are also switching their broadcast hours to cover more time.
Theresa Klinkenberg, associate University director for administration, said that part of the funding difficulties stemmed from increased NPR dues, caused by the addition of Fresh Air and Car Talk to KANU's programming roster. Membership has held up, and the station should be able to finish the fiscal year in the black, Klinkenberg said.
Kathryn Wiese, director of development at KANU, said the station's income had actually risen during
the last several years, but not enough to cover rising operating costs.
Janet Campbell, assistant director of KANU and director of Audio Reader, will assist in KANU's fiscal restructuring soon, Klinkenberg said.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway has paid much attention to the problem, Wiese said.
"The chancellor is familiar with public radio; he ran a public station in Tennessee, so he understands how things work," Wiese said. "He's been willing to jump in and help as much as possible."
Fergie dumps plump after poor marriage
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — A slimmer Sarah Ferguson, making light of her former media title as the "Duchess of Pork," stepped forward yesterday as the new representative for Weight Watchers in the United States.
But Weight Watchers representative Mary Anne Bohrer said the Duchesse of York stopped short of revealing her actual weight.
Ferguson, 37, is within the 131- to 158-pound range that Weight Watchers suggests for her height, which is 5-feet-7 1/2-inches. She hopes to lose 5 more pounds.
"Ferguson wants to send the message that one's actual weight is one's personal business, and that it doesn't need to be disclosed to anyone," Bohrer said. "What's important is having a healthy weight."
Ferguson said, "It was 'Fat Fergie,' which then gave way to 'Fat And Appalling Fergie' and after that my favorite — 'Fergie, The Duchess Of Pork.' Actually, I called myself that, but yes, it really did hurt."
