Manage episode 476311621 series 3524329
The latest in the ongoing saga over NC’s Supreme Court seat. What Republican Jefferson Griffin’s win (for now) with the state appeals court means, and what happens next.
With the fast-approaching, sold-out live taping at DPAC, Peter Sagal needs all the help he can get to prepare. Thankfully, he’s got a one-on-one study session with Due South’s Leoneda Inge. But he better get ready, because she’s got a news quiz of her own for him…
And, the Environmental Protection Agency's largest facility in Research Triangle Park has several hundred workers. Current and former researchers warn that deep cuts to the agency’s research arm could be 'devastating' for environmental policy decisions.
