7 August, beginning at 0700 in Pittsburgh, WDUQ FM broadcast On The Media, produced by WNYC, in New York. It was an interesting broadcast, to say the very least.
One segment dealt with the bureaucracy and government trying to duck the requirements of The Freedom Of Information Act, and efforts of a non-profit organization to check such antics.
The last segment dealt with the media and guns, and was entitled Why Reporters Get It Wrong On Guns. To bad media didn't recognize it's internal problems 30 plus years ago, problems that were mentioned in the segment.
Anyhow, while I realize that 0700 on a Sunday might be a bit early for lot's of people, interested parties that is, you might check with the web sites of WNYC in New York, www.wnyc.org or that of WDUQ, in Pittsburgh, www.wduq.org, to see what their archives might contain.
Wherever a given reader might be, they might also check with their local Public Radio outlet to see what might be available in the way of either a recorded or a text version of the broadcast. It struck me as worth hearing.
Might even be worth while letting the station know what you think or thought of the segment.
