What's the deal with Tavis Smiley? He walked away from an NPR show last year. He picked up a PBS show. He also has a two hour once-a-week radio show from PRI (although not a lot of stations seem to have picked it up).
Now, the Philadelphia commercial station which dropped the two programs it was taking from Air America Radio to return to an all Urban talk format during the day announces it is picking up Tavis Smiley on Friday afternoons. Is this the same PRI show (not cleared on any of Philly's three public radio stations)? Is PRI now distributing to commercial stations, as well, or does Tavis do a second radio program for commercial syndication?
