On the Media's Bob Garfield

The Leonard Lopate Show | Feb 25, 2011

On the Media host Bob Garfield discusses the 10-year anniversary of the WNYC show On the Media, how technology has transformed the media landscape in the last decade, and what we can expect going forward. He’ll also talk about On The Media’s project Blow The Whistle, a collaboration with Government Accountability Project to uncover the identity of the senator who last December put an anonymous hold on the Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act (Bill S.372), essentially killing it at the last minute.

WNYC is funded by sponsors and member donations
