Daily Digest


Every Thursday morning I produce what is called the daily digest for KALW news. The work entails scanning other news sources for noteworthy stories that we discuss in our morning meeting. Sometimes we follow up, expand, or take the story in a new direction for the show. Other stories are worth noting for later, while others yet are discarded on the news-noise scrap heap. Here's a copy of my digest from today...



World/National News


Power generated in a box, a bloom box that is...Somebody please explain how this thing works!


Healthcare summit in Washington today to interrupt Days of Our Lives. More importantly does it have Emmy winning potential?




California News


High Speed rail to take passangers away from Bay airports suffer.



Bay Area


Is Oakland picking on low income neighborhoods?



Muslim discrimination case at San Mateo Mall.





SF


In an electrifying public statement Police Chief Gascon says he wants tasers for officers.

Mayor Newsom says City close to solving homelessness. On a side note, I'm really close to single handedly ending the War in Afghanistan without further bloodshed.
