Media Fringe

Hosted by

Scott Carrier took a job in commercial radio working for a network correspondent he refers to as &quotThe Friendly Man.&quot Every story he was sent out on was supposed to be upbeat, a tale of people coming together in the heartwarming spirit of community. And every story turned out to be a sham. When he tried to tell his editors the story they wanted was untrue, he was told that attitude would get him fired. This and other stories about people struggling at the fringes of our nation's media/music/infotainment industry.
