For years stations have sought to diversify their programming options. Public Radio International, which was also created by stations and has become NPR's primary competitor, markets and distributes programs produced by local stations, like [...] Michael Feldman's Whad'Ya Know, a weekly entertainment show produced by Wisconsin Public Radio.
