WBUR is an NPR station, not only is it not difficult to find out the writer is an employee of NPR, it's out in the open and advertised as such. Do writers need to disclose on every article that they're employees of the organization they're writing for?

I think they should make it clear in the first paragraph when they are, in effect, writing about themselves or their employer. That's what I would have done.
