Diane’s farewell message
After 52 years at WAMU, Diane Rehm says goodbye.
Greenville, South Carolina is one of the cities James and Deborah Fellows visited as part of their work on small town America.
James Fallows is no doubt a Washington insider. He worked for Jimmy Carter’s administration and has long covered politics as a journalist.
He’s also found it increasingly important to get out of D.C. His travels around the country with his wife, Deborah Fallows, have revealed an America less divided — and more functional — than the picture we often see in the headlines.
This week, as Democrats demand release of the full Mueller report – and President Trump lashes out at critics – Fallows offers some perspective from inside – and outside – the Beltway.
Guests
- James Fallows Staff writer, The Atlantic; he and his wife, Deborah Fallows, are the authors of the new book Our Towns: A 100,000-Mile Journey Into the Heart of America
