Friday Reporters’ Roundtable
The Sound of Ideas: Friday, August 13, 2010
As the Latino population grows in Ohio, so has interest by the Justice Department about whether election ballots should be bilingual. Washington is leaning on Cuyahoga County to become the first in the state to provide bilingual ballots. Also, there's acrimony in Akron over city deficit estimates and the need for more layoffs; a Cuyahoga County official resigns over a conflict of interest. And, now that the Plain Dealer and the Cleveland Orchestra have prevailed in the lawsuit brought by music critic Don Rosenberg, we'll assess the outcome and its implications. David Molpus hosts the Reporters' Roundtable, Friday morning at 9 on 90.3.

New Museum Director
The Sound of Ideas: Thursday, August 12, 2010
If you grew up in northeast Ohio, your class probably took a field trip to the Cleveland Museum of Natural History. Thursday morning, we'll board the bus once again. We'll talk about everything from fossils to physics with the museum's new executive director, Evalyn Gates. We'll hear about the exciting changes she plans to bring to the museum. And we'll take an imaginary trip into deep space where science is just starting to find out a lot of what we thought we knew about the universe was dead wrong. Come along for the ride. To infinity and beyond, Tuesday morning at 9:00 on 90.3.
