CounterSpin
Counterspin is FAIR's weekly radio show, hosted by Janine Jackson, Steve Rendall and Peter Hart. It's heard on more than 125 noncommercial stations across the United States and Canada. Counterspin provides a critical examination of the major stories every week, and exposes what the mainstream media might have missed in their own coverage.
This week on CounterSpin: Republican presidential candidates disagreed on many things, but when it came to the idea of raising the minimum wage, they were in concert: It would be a “disaster,” increase joblessness and knock us out of international competition. Media usually present the issue as one of workers vs. business, but that’s not the whole story. We’ll get a different angle from Holly Sklar of the national network called Business for a Fair Minimum Wage.
