| The letter she sent (linked in the Times article) makes it clear that she's expressing a personal attitude. The interview she gave to NPR is also instructive in that regard. To her the station is meant to be "relaxing" and "a refuge." (The updated article contains the original interview.) Now she's not the one facing the press. | |

| Yes, oh my goodness: In the NPR interview, Proctor called WCPE's programming "a safe refuge from the horrors of life." Repeatedly, Proctor also appealed to the sensibilities of any children who might tune into her station or come across it online and said that her personal values were integral to her decision-making. Breaking into tears on the phone, Proctor said: "I have a moral decision to make here. What if one child hears this? When I stand before Jesus Christ on Judgement Day, what am I going to say?" I suppose we all have different ideas of the horrors of life! |

| Kids have the entire Internet at their fingertips... but sure, stumbling across an opera on the radio is cause for concern. Smh. | |
