There is absolutely no reason why a station in Boston should air this piece. But what if there were numerous pieces from all across the US of A that addressed similar questions -- say, people near the military reservation on Cape Cod, where water quality has fallen subject to forces beyond their ballot box?
A good, solid story, well told. A potentially interesting use of the PRX model to provide new definitions for the "community" in community radio.
