This week on Media Matters we are joined by three local community

journalists in addition to writing and producing news. Her community
radio experiences also include producing an hour-long radio
documentary on the death penalty and a seven-year involvement with
WEFT where she was a member of the Programming Committee, served as a
Public Service Announcement Coordinator, hosted a music show, and was
a host of the WEFT Courier.

I was told when we taped that this show would be the first Media Matters that was podcast. They may have run into technical difficulties, since this is a new format at WILL. You might check with them if you did not see a podcast link on the website. |
