WYSO Weekend: April 03, 2016

WYSO Weekend

In this edition of WYSO Weekend: WYSO’s locally produced American Graduate stories from our series, What's Next. And we’ll end the program with an American Graduate extra featuring the Stivers School for the Arts Senior Chorus. We start the program with an interview with Terry DeMio, a reporter with The Cincinnati Enquirer. Her new beat is solely dedicated to covering the heroin epidemic that many cities like Dayton and Cincinnati are facing. We spoke to DeMio about the paper’s the decision to put a full time heroin reporter in place and about how she approaches the stories she reporting on. *You can find the stories DeMio is reporting on at Cincinnati.com and follow her on twitter @tdemio
