For anyone seeing this blog in the Syracuse area, you should enjoy this news show. Democracy Now, which is shown on 900 stations worldwide, broadcast from Syracuse today (Nov 4th). I was able to see the host (Amy Goodman) speak last night in town. I had no idea she was going to cover these local issues.
They covered 2 very important local stories: Predator drone missions being flown from Hancock Air Base and subsequent arrests/trials of protesters against it. And, Syracuse’s ban of fracking was also debated. It’s a great listen. As an added bonus, they played a local artist during breaks (the show has no commercials). One guest (appears in the 2nd clip) is a Syracuse University professor as well.
Thanks for checking in,
James
