RBR+TVBR‘s recent coverage of FM station sales by Dartmouth College and Purdue University led retired Fletcher, Heald & Hildreth Member Peter Tannenwald to write a Letter to the Editor addressing a reference of the August 2017 decision by the entity that controlled the former WBRU-FM in Providence to sell the Alternative station.
As he explains, the vote to sell WBRU came from the students that maintained oversight of the station — not a university board of directors.
