Audio by year 2008

Here is "Turn Me On" for Thursday, August 28, 2008.

January 29, 2008 This special presentation produced by WCRS and Zach Henkel features audio clips from the Tuesday January 29th 2012 Bicentennial Citizen Summit at the Columbus Convention Center. Clips include speeches and words from Mayor Mike Coleman, keynote speaker and author James Surowiecki, and select Question and Answer segments from the Citizen Summit.

Jan. 27, 2008: Jeff Cohen, Founder of FAIR (Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting), and Scott Ritter, US Marine and former UN weapons inspector in Iraq, speak at the IBEW Union Hall. Jeff describes the failure of our media to present balanced viewpoints in the runup to the Iraq war and how the media is setting itself up to "get fooled again" regarding Iran. Scott talks about administration lies and the subversion of our constitution.

This Jan. 27 event was funded in part by the Puffin Foundation.

Feb 15 , 2008: Michelle Obama speaks at OSU. She describes how the "bar" for most Americans to live a fullfilling, healthy life is moving farther and farther ahead, out of reach. She speaks of Barack's humble beginnings working as a constitutional lawyer and his involvement in the rough field of Chicago politics with his push for ethics reform. Her talk is heartwarming, inspiring, and very down-to-earth. Afterwards, she signs autographs, chats with people in the reception line, and gives plenty of hugs.
