THIS WEEK: Friday, July 27, 2012 @ 7:30 pm
(Rebroadcast Sunday @ 11 am )
GOOGLE: More than a year after picking KC for its big internet experiment, Google finally breaks its silence and announces what many have been waiting for all along…real details about its ultra-high speed fiber plans and the pricetag for getting hooked up.
IMMIGRATION: PBS launches a national documentary series on immigration and Kansas City takes the national spotlight in the broadcast.
PINKEL: The consequences of speaking your mind – A Missouri Lawmaker is condemning Missouri head football coach Gary Pinkel for his comments supporting the late Penn State football icon Joe Paterno. Pinkel calls Paterno a “great man.” Missouri Representative Sara Lampe, who’s running for Lieutenant Governor calls the remarks “indefensible.”
RIFLE RAFFLE: A Missouri House member is now making national news for raffling off an AR-15 assault rifle to help raise money for his re-election campaign. That’s the same style weapon used in the mass movie theater shooting in Colorado last weekend that killed 12 and injured more than 50.
