My local Pittsburgh independent stations are in trouble -- WYEP is a great music station, WESA is the NPR station -- operated by one entity, PCBC. PCBC has waded into podcasting over the years but have never capitalized on it. Management says costs are going up but cutting their outrageous compensation is never considered. The three PCBC positions:

Key Employees and Officers Compensation

TERENCE O'REILLY (PRESIDENT AND CEO) $289,400

JOHN SUTTON (VP, AUDIENCES AND REVENUE) $197,810

CHRISTOPHER CAPATO (VP, FINANCE AND ADMINISTRA) $150,974

COURTNAE TURKO (SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT) $119,699

CINDI LASH (VP, NEWS) $95,422

"Everyone is worried about digital but not us!" Didn't Kendall Roy say that?
