WKNO

This week on the Behind the Headlines Radio Roundtable, Shelby County District Attorney Amy Weirich and U.S. Attorney for West Tennessee Ed Stanton join host Eric Barnes, publisher of the Memphis Daily News, to discuss new Federal drug policy, and how it might affect local and state prosecutors on sentencing and incarceration.

For the complete discussion, check the Behind the Headlines video page, or tune-in Fridays at 7 on WKNO-TV 10.

My mother introduced me to WKNO-FM and public radio long before I can remember. I suppose the first thing I really recall about WKNO-FM is that every afternoon, when my mother picked me up from school, the radio was tuned-in to The World, then All Things Considered, probably beginning around age 8. The way these reporters and hosts took you from the comfort of your mom's van to wherever in the world they were reporting from absolutely fascinated me. From then on, I was officially hooked.
