Uncommon Economic Follow-Up: Reconnections

The Brian Lehrer Show | Apr 1, 2010
Our series of follow-ups for the 1-year anniversary of the Your Uncommon Economic Indicators project continues. Gerry Segal, YUEI contributor who you may remember as the winner of the BLS satire slam, talks about how his exposure on The Brian Lehrer Show and social media has allowed him to reconnect with his musical interests. Then, Bill Werde, editorial director of Billboard Magazine, looks at whether social media presents a viable economic model for the music publishing industry.
