Audio Postcard: Dayton on Trump's First Month

Audio Postcard: Dayton on Trump's First Month

We’ve heard a lot since President Donald Trump took office about how divided many people across the country are feeling. What about the mood closer to home? In a quest for answers, we sent WYSO intern Josh Chenault out with a microphone to Courthouse Square, where he asked people to describe Trump's first month in office using 10 words or less. The responses offer a range of commentary on Trump's performance in office, his cabinet picks and executive orders, and more. Here's some of what you had to say.

Jess Mador comes to WYSO from Knoxville NPR-station WUOT, where she created an interactive multimedia health storytelling project called TruckBeat, one of 15 projects around the country participating in AIR's Localore: #Finding America initiative. Before TruckBeat, Jess was an independent public radio journalist based in Minneapolis. She’s also worked as a staff reporter and producer at Minnesota Public Radio in the Twin Cities, and produced audio, video and web stories for a variety of other news outlets, including NPR News, APM, and PBS television stations. She has a Master's degree from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism in New York. She loves making documentaries and telling stories at the intersection of journalism, digital and social media.
