9. Would somebody post if they have any snippets of it?

The more widely disseminated, the better.

4. Wow...

NPR takes a few steps left after their recent sprint to the right.

I can hardly listen to NPR anymore because of the neo-con shills that have come to dominate their guests and anchors.
I mean the 'News and Notes' show that replaced Tavis Smiley has been a travisty of daily neo-con talking points.
And the rest of their shows have gotten just as bad.

5. Terry Gross interviews all kinds of people

For example, yesterday was Lynn Cheney. I think she is very well-balanced. She usually asks some softball questions and some really tough questions of her guests, regardless of political affiliation. To me, that is what real journalism is.

btw - she kinda pissed off Lynn yesterday. It was funny :)

6. true...

I was speaking in general terms.
Terry Gross is rather good, and if she pissed off Lynn Chaney...
all I can say is ... Excellent.

Unfortunately most of the rest of them have turned into neo-con hacks.

Oh well, maybe Louisville will get AAR at some point.

7. I always thought if I could have any job in th world, it would be Terry

Grosses. She does a great job!

8. I know. This AM they were openly discrediting * and "reforms"

"Carefully staged" press conference...regarding tort reform...

Tort reform bill really backs businesses not consumers, as Hatch and * portrays it--this from David Wella as straight up reporting.
