That's the least of it. The worst is the local station's loooong list of sponsors, and what those sponsors want you to know about.

The guy that says that line you quoted... I *love* the way he says "Support for NP Arrrre" (it's that last "R"). I think the whole line is usually, "Support for N P arRRrre comes from the Wallace Reader's Digest Fund."
