@nikkiana Having each of these CMS instances support ActivityPub would be a major advance in a number of ways, but in my opinion, this is the big one: it would allow very easy sharing of articles BETWEEN NPR affiliates.
Right now, most NPR affiliates' websites get an automated feed of NPR articles via NPR's API.
But it's still hub-and-spoke; here in Boston I have automatic access to NPR articles but not, say, to the work of an affiliate in San Antonio. 3/x
