      <title>Q&amp;A with Steve Inskeep</title>
      <description>Steve Inskeep discussed his book, [Instant City: Life and Death in Karachi]. He said he chose Karachi because the city best exemplifies the growth and change of a town when the population rapidly escalates. He shared the history of Pakistan's religions and governments, and the impact of them on the city since 1947. He also talked about a recent trip he made with some National Public Radio (NPR) staff members through Tunisia, Libya, and Egypt. He packaged a series of reports for the "Morning Edition" program and titled them the "Revolutionary Road Trip." He commented on audio clips of his radio series on the new government in Tunisia, controversy over alcohol in Carthage, and a surprise discovery of young children playing golf in the desert of Benghazi, Libya. He also reflected on his early days in broadcasting as well as the diversity of employees at NPR.</description>

      <title>After Words with Brian Jennings</title>
      <description>Brian Jennings talked about his book [Censorship: The Threat to Silence Talk Radio] (Threshold Editions; May 5, 2009). In his book the conservative talk-show programmer decries efforts by Democratic politicians to revive the Fairness Doctrine. The doctrine, enacted in 1979 and repealed by the Reagan administration in 1987, required airing opposing viewpoints on television and radio. The popularity of conservative talk-radio programs and the consolidation of ownership of broadcasters has raised concerns about the need for more balanced voices. But Mr. Jennings argues that regular media, including NPR, and the Internet offer multiple channels for liberal views. He interviewed other talk-show hosts for their perspectives on the Fairness Doctrine as well as offering a historical perspective on the growth of conservative talk radio. He claims that it grew out of the pent-up frustration of conservative listeners and, in the name of free speech, invites liberals to do the same rather than make back-door efforts to re-regulate the airwaves. The guest interviewer was Monica Crowley.
Brian Jennings is a talk radio programmer who served as national vice president of talk programming for Citadel Broadcasting for over a decade and served as programming head to over 40 radio stations nationwide. A national award-winning journalist, he has also worked as a consultant to national personalities.
Monica Crowley worked as a foreign policy assistant to former President Richard Nixon from 1990 until his death in 1994. She is the author of [Nixon off the Record: His Candid Commentary on People and Politics] and [Nixon in Winter]. Ms. Crowley has appeared as an analyst and commentator on many radio and television programs and in 2002 she began hosting "The Monica Crowley Show" from New York City.</description>
