NPR has announced Melissa Block is leaving as one of the three hosts of All Things Considered to take on a new role as a special correspondent.
Now we have noticed in recent months how that title can be used by management to move an anchor off the desk and into no-man’s land, but in this case, after more than ten years with ATC and 30 with NPR, it appears Block is excited about the change and has some specific ideas for her new role. One of those ideas could result in a Block hosted podcast. Perhaps it would be known as a Blockcast.
Podcasting is an expansion platform for NPR, all things considered.
