If you've been paying attention to the chit-chat about our local airwaves lately, you know there's been much ado about the recent decision by the VSC board to limit the number of community (or "non-affiliate") DJs to 25 per semester.

In this week's City Limits, I delve into the issue a bit deeper, and talk to many of those involved, including VSC board members Kevin Leander and Mark Wollaeger. Understandably, many of the DJs I contacted did not want to talk on the record for fear of either jeopardizing their own shows or biasing the board. In any case, it looks like things are headed, at the very least, toward more discussion. Check it.

The tl;dr version: VSC board votes to cap community DJs at 25, brown stuff hits rotating thing, Facebook group/petition organized to counter. (Join here.)
