Review of Dear Radio

Breaking up is hard to do. Carolina Wheat's Dear John letter to Frequency Modulation would be funnier if it wasn't so depressingly true; if she didn't nail the relationship some of us have had with radio...intimate, forbidden, secret...and how that auditory lover has grown increasingly stupid and unresponsive. Witty and well produced, the piece would add perspective to any discussion of the concentration of corporate owned media and our personal relationship to what we listen to.
