brunching on commentary haikus
I put this on my website yesterday and wasn't sure I'd post it here as well, but what the hell. I figure there's a gap between my mailing list (you can join via my website) and visitors to my blog:
This past Sunday, Vermont Public Radio held its 2nd annual Commentators' Brunch in Killington. The charge to commentators this year was a one-minute piece (normally, they're 3 mins 14 secs) on the topic of "common ground." One VPRer dubbed them "commentary haikus." Despite the onset of wicked, pole-snapping weather, about 25 of us showed at the Cortina Inn, along with a bevy of staffers and loyal listeners. It was a great afternoon. VPR recorded the event in hopes of broadcasting it at a future date. Click here for my piece (an adaptation of a recent blog post). Fellow commentator/blogger Philip Baruth took the podium, too; click here to read his piece.
