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: The White House wants to cut $6 billion from HUD, the Department of Housing and Urban Development—or 13 percent of the agency’s funding. Team Trump says that programs that support affordable housing for families, the elderly, and people with disabilities haven’t “justified their existence.” It’s not a mystery how devastating such cuts would be, and for whom—or why. So how do we fight back with a different vision of housing and community? We’ll talk about that with Tony Romano, organizer with the Right to the City Alliance.
