Michael Coleman, general manager for WDET 101.9 FM, was charged Thursday in Ann Arbor with felony embezzlement at his former employer, Michigan Public Media, which operates the city's public radio station, WUOM 91.7 FM. Louis Lessem, vice president and general counsel at Wayne State University , which owns WDET, said Coleman "continues to serve as our general manager.
