The good things which go to strengthen our communities and the country
as
a whole -do they have to be *necessarily* linked to "CurrentNews" ? I
don't suppose you meant to say that. So, we could still have those even
with banning the FMs from "covering" "CurrentNews". They could be
engaged
in discovering things instead.

Thanks.
