PRX Tests Presidential Waters

Listen to the latest, now.
Hi friend of PRX,
Well, it seemed like a good idea.
People do like PRX, we're suckers for cheering crowds with balloons, and reporters' questions aren't too hard. Yet. It's good we have this PRX thing to fall back on in case our poll numbers look crummy in the primary states.
This week PRX got its first piece from Iraq, a string of pieces from the National Holocaust Museum, and even a visit from hip hop artist Wyclef Jean.
Holidays, hunting, Hannukah -- producers and stations are giving PRX a vote of seasonal confidence.
You in?
--John

CLASSICAL STATION?
As you may know, we don't have a ton of classical music programs. But we want to change that. You can help by filling out this simple survey, which asks questions about current and future radio content on PRX and about a relatively new producer, Virtuoso Voices.
It should take no more than 5 minutes to complete, and will go a long way towards getting pieces on our site that interest you.
Go to the survey!
