(New York Times) — The broadcaster Tavis Smiley is changing the co-producer of his weeknight PBS talk show to WNET.org, from the Los Angeles station KCET-TV. The half-hour interview program, which is called “Tavis Smiley” and begins its eighth season in January, will continue to be taped largely at its rented studios at KCET-TV, which had been Mr. Smiley’s production partner. But with KCET’s decision to end its affiliation with PBS effective Jan. 1, the show needed to find a new partner within the PBS family. Mr. Smiley plans to formally announce the move on Tuesday.
