Fertilizer Factory Under Fire

Published: Oct. 24, 2012, 6 p.m.

Attorney Wally Taylor of the Sierra Club discusses the threat of pollution from an Egyptian fertilizer factory slated for southeast Iowa - and subsidized by taxpayers to the tune of $251 million! We also talk about how Big Oil is now writing for the Des Moines Register (aka, Gannett), as evidenced by the lack of even a drop of critical thinking in the story in today's news about the US overtaking Saudi Arabia as the world's leading oil producer. Also, we talk with Jen Wilson about her new book, "Running Away to Home." And local musician Big Joe Kinser stops by for a visit.
