Tom Crann, MPR News

Getting the band back together tonight! I will join @TomCrann @Stowydad and @ChasAnderson on @mpr after the polls close to talk about primary night and what the results might tell us about the November election.

A video will be live on the website within a couple hours. Radio will be airing this afternoon on All Things Considered and I'll be talking with @TomCrann about the case. (7)

RTÉ Lyric FM first hit the airwaves 25 years ago today with its debut broadcast at noon on 1 May 1999. When it started it broke new ground as the only dedicated classical and arts music radio station in the country rte.ie/news/2024/0501…

Here we were, 25 years ago. None of us have changed a bit. This is the gang who launched ⁦@RTElyricfm⁩ 1 May 1999. As great a group as I could imagine. Many of the fine broadcasters are still there, providing Ireland with first-rate music and arts radio. Comhghairdeachas!

In a 2000 interview, MacNeil said that he and news partner Jim Lehrer aimed to add “a kind of respect for complexity to the news that was already there.” Their approach, he said, was based on “fundamental fairness and objectivity, and also the idea that the American public is smarter than they’re often given credit for on television, and they don’t all need things in little bite-sized, candy-sized McNuggets of news.” pbs.org/newshour/press…

Here we go, snow lovers. ❄️❄️❄️ Two storms combine to quite possibly dump a foot or more of snow by next Tuesday. Our first system ramps up tonight. System #2 is still on track to dump heavy wet-cement snow starting Sunday. My latest take. #mnwx mprnews.org/story/2024/03/…

Congratulations Joe Mauer on being elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame!

We’ve worked together for 2 1/2 years — but always from studios on opposite coats. Today @amartinezla and I are in the same place, Studio 31 in Washington.

@mukhtaryare Mukhtar, you indeed have a knack for all those things and more. It is your readers, and all of us in the community who benefit from it. You’ve built something impressive and sustainable. I wish you and your family the very best in the future.

Five years later, I've discovered that I have a knack for entrepreneurship, management, building sustainable businesses, growing talent, setting new standards in our industry. I'm leaving behind a strong foundation so that those who come after me won't face the same challenges.

The past few days have been busy. I’m overwhelmed by the support I've received. Thank you to everyone who has sent congratulations and encouragement.

before the weekend, a reminder that it was 25 years ago tonight that Jesse Ventura "shocked the world" by becoming Gov-elect of Minnesota. 5 yrs ago> this reflective conversation w/ him about his time as 38th Gov of MN. mprnews.org/story/2018/11/… details: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1998_Minn…

I spent 3 weeks of my life talking Gov. Ventura into an interview 5 years ago. @TomCrann @coreyschreppel & I ended up at his house for an hour. It's one of my favorite things I've ever manifested into the world and I love this write up by @LauraMcCallumB mprnews.org/story/2018/11/…
