A really interesting story came out of West Virginia this morning, one that will play well in a lot of states watching primaries in North Carolina and Indiana.
Reporter Anna Sale visits a barber shop in Man, WV and asks who people will vote for and why. The answers she gets are blunt and (sometimes) worrisome, but Sale holds the yoke firm to give an unvarnished portrait of current political thought in Appalachia.
Any station covering the election at all next week will want to air this piece. Production is top notch and works easily into ME & ATC cutaways. It’s available on PRX here. We also have other pieces and on race and politics. Check ‘em out here.
West Virginians go to the poles on the 13th.
