What they heard on CNN

[Dan Strassberg]

And who owns KFAB and KKAR? I suspect that I know. But for an NPR station
not to carry the speech and to carry the Beeb instead--incredible! Of
course, Nebraska is almost as Republican as, say, Idaho or Montana. (But
wasn't Mike Mansfield, the famous Montana senator of 50 or so years ago, a
Democrat?) Maybe the KIOS underwriters would have pulled the station's
funding if it had broadcast Kerry's speech.
