“The People of WFHB News” – In this special celebration of volunteer spirit news director Chad Carrothers spends and hour with nearly a dozen of the movers and shakers in local community newsradio to find out what makes them tick. In segment one you’ll hear familiar voices like senior correspondent Cynthia Roberts-Hall and lead reporter Sarah Eckard talk about the launch of our local news, while feature producers Kelly Wherley of Voices in the Street and Richard Fish of Bloomington Beware wax poetic about WFHB as a reflecting glass for the community and rising stars Erin Farlow and David Nosko talk about what attracted them to community media. Segment two spotlights the people behind our diversity-based public affairs programming with Clarence Boone, producer of Bring It On, Helen Harrell of bloomingOUT, and Teresa Velez of Hola Bloomington. In our final segment we hear some amazing stats from WFHB podcasting guru Nate Johnson (6000 downloads this month) and finally we put it all back into perspective with Indiana University journalism professor and WFHB news advisory councilman Mike Conway. This show moves fast but it’s a unique insight into the personalities of local people who chose to “become the media.”
