Description

Freedom of speech is in the news, up for debate, and drawing protestors in at least one western Massachusetts city. What does our panel think?

And $2.5 million from the state was spent. But an investigation by the Springfield Republican found not much to show for that at the Paramount Theater. What happened? 

How much could a potential government shutdown impact western Massachusetts? And, how the current drought impacts farmers in the 413.

We’re running down all of that and more this week with our panel: Adam Hinds, CEO of the Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the United States Senate; Dusty Christensen, investigations editor at The Shoestring; and NEPM reporter Jill Kaufman.
