The legendary anchorman of the classic film "Network," Howard Beale, became a cultural icon for the axiom "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore."
We're all Howard Beales now, to paraphrase John F. Kennedy.
If the country has a national mood, it's mad. The fury has become so intense that it has fractured our national psyche and has provoked daily speculation from even the most blasé pundits about whether America is on the verge of another civil war.
But what are the roots of the intemperate disunion that pervades almost every aspect of daily life? Where did all this anger come from, why can't we just get along and how can we stitch our splintered country together again?
Those are the questions an all-star panel of nationally known headliners will explore as part of "Common Ground with Jane Whitney's" first program of the 2022 season.
