Sprouts
Sprouts Radio from the Grassroots is a 30-minute weekly program featuring radio programs produced at community radio stations or by other independent producers from across the country and sometimes around the world.
This week on Sprouts, we take a thoughtful reflection on what is becoming of the American election process: the emerging extremes, limitations, questionable practices, and stresses. Segments look at financial backing across state lines, manipulation in messaging, how voter disenfranchisement works, and how negative campaigning affects our youth. As a special treat, for your entertainment (or horror…): three “Best Of Negative Ads” medleys.
Featured speakers/guests:
Sam Bouman at KBOO in Portland OR; Ryan Katz at KBOO in Portland OR; Ursula Ruedenberg at Pacifica Network and KHOI in Ames, IA with two teenagers.
