I added a blurb about Bob Edwards Weekend now that I know it exists (thanks to KUNC radio for adding it to their weekend programming schedule!) Hopefully didn't over-promote it or screw up the overall flow of the article too much. Dgstangel 06:05, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
can we add any info about the circumstances of his demotion at NPR? I don't understand why it happened.--

No one really does, actually. I go into some of the theories on the bobedwards.info website, but it's anything from certain NPR board members hating him to ageism to boredom. (*shrug*) My personal guess is that it was a combination of things, coupled with a complete disconnect from the desires of the listenership by the executives.
There are some small errors in this entry, which I hesitate to correct as they would change the "voice" of the original poster:
For what it's worth, in an interview with the Boston Globe in November of 2004, Edwards noted he suggested to Kernis that he remain until the 25th anniversary, but was told, "The anniversary is about the future -- not the past." "That was pretty cold," said Edwards.

Image:Bedwards140.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BetacommandBot 02:14, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
I'd like to add an external link showing an interview of Bob Edwards by a Professor at University of Maryland. The link is http://www.researchchannel.org/prog/displayevent.aspx?rID=8118&fID=345 (this does not automatically load the video). Please let me know what you think.

I changed something, but I don't know if it meets the wikipedia format. The external links specific to BE's departure I put within that section. If this doesn't jive, maybe someone can move it back. Sorry if I should have written this question first before moving the links around, but I'm not adding or subtracting anything, so hopefully it's not that big of a deal.

I removed the POV tag regarding the list of awards Bob Edwards satellite program has won. Where is the dispute? Who is disputing the POV? Mracew ( talk) 23:20, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
