We need feedback from you on these headlines. We’re currently evaluating if we should continue with this service, or if we should concentrate on other projects. The idea to create the Headlines podcast was to provide a source for regional news. It’s our belief that we need to hear about what’s happening in other communities. I grew up in Virginia, and feel I’m a resident of the entire state - not just a resident of Charlottesville. What do you think?
