This episode features a clip from this past weekend's great episode of WNYC's On the Media about American car culture. Specifically, Angie Schmitt of one of my favorite websites, Streetsblog, talking about the dark proliferation of the local news trope of guy-forced-to-walk-miles-to-get-to-work-gets-a-free-car. The whole segment is much better than my crude cut-down version, so don't miss it. The whole episode though, really.
