WASHINGTON (AP) National Public Radio says it's offering across-the-board buyouts in hopes of cutting its staff by 10 percent.
The buyouts, which are to be offered across the entire organization, were approved by NPR's board of directors as a way to eliminate a projected operating deficit of $6.1 million.
NPR distributes news, information and music programming to 975 public radio stations, reaching 27 million listeners a week.
