You Are The Guest Show 84 - A Pay Raise for Congress?

When the calendar hits July, it's time for our mid-year news in review with award winning journalist Vern Beachy. Vern and I talk about the stories that count and discuss why news rooms shove the stories we don't want to hear about down our throats. Topics include the biggest taxpayer and consumer rip-off, the most over hyped tech fad, and our Hosebag of the Year candidates for 2007. I also get Vern's thoughts on 10 presidential candidates as he rates them on a scale of 1 to 10 on how they're doing so far. Vern asks me if I will be getting an iPhone, what I think about the Iowa Caucus and the straw poll, and my opinion on how well Iowa news reporters have been covering the candidates as they stomp through Iowa.
