Customer Reviews
Well-researched and thoughtful
I like that they include related links on their website to see other views and articles related to each subject
Longer
The show needs to run its interviews longer. Why is the show only 1/2 hour? Also, keep the music going during Nixon’s Underreported News segments. Why isn’t Bob reading them? The current reporter reading them destroys the momentum of the show. Obviously, the authors would rather us visit the website. Just give us the goods!
Progressive newbie
Great for getting "between the lines" of social policy debates from a progressive/"people" point of view. Especially the website - transcripts AND related links from all sorts of alternative, reliable, first-class journalists, academics and activists
