The problem with the Post's radio venture, says Harry Jaffe, is that most of its journalists aren't suited for that medium. "They might be good reporters, but many lack the gift of gab. In other words, they can be boring," he writes. "The few who can tell good radio stories are all over NPR and MSNBC, so Post Radio doesn’t seem special." Jaffe hears the Post will pull the plug at the end of the Nationals season.
