GOODWIN DISCUSSES TALK SHOW ISSUE

Dr. Fred Goodwin will present ~"Talk Shows: Public Help or Hindrance?" at 7 p.m. Tuesday at the Holiday Inn, Route K and Interstate 55.

The program, which is free and open to the public, is hosted by the River City Business and Professional Women and funded by the Missouri Humanities Council and the National Endowment for the Humanities.

Dr. Goodwin will explore whether mass media talk shows can harm American society and whether legal and moral limits offer any restraint to damaging talk. For additional information, contact Brenda Neumeyer at (314) 243-2635.
