Well, I guarantee that the station manager just picked up his yearly raise, as well as the director of fundraising, plus the news manager, and likely the programming manager as well. The vice president and president of the station probably picked up a few bucks as well. And no scrimping on the next trip to the national NPR convention either!

Seriously, they could pay off that loan, and likely be well in the black, simply by keeping present staffing and capping salaries at $50,000 a year. But I guarantee the leadership of the station is pulling down at least a million dollars between them, and all looking forward to heavily subsidized retirements for the rest of their lives.

Every trick learned by the public drone is out-shined by their NPR and PBS counterparts.

...Blair Feulner, KCPW/KPCW General Manager: “We are the best in the country at what we do. And we have the paperwork to prove it.”

Feulner doesn’t dispute the Salt Lake Tribune’s report on his salary: 150,000-plus per year. Before his wife retired, together they made 280,000 two years ago. She worked there before they got married.

Blair Feulner: “She ran the business side and I ran the programming side. And I believe in equal pay for equal work.”

But Salt Lake’s other community station managers get a third to a half as much...
