Manchester Mayor Guinta Hears from the Public

By Debra Daigle on Thursday, May 4, 2006.

A standing room only crowd filled Memorial High School auditorium in Manchester Wednesday evening.

School officials had to open up the cafeteria and supply a big screen tv for the overflow.

The public had turned out a hearing on Manchester’s proposed city budget.

Mayor Frank Guinta has submitted a 256 million dollar plan.

That represents a $3 million cut from last year’s budget.

But as NHPR Correspondent Debra Daigle reports, most of those who testified were concerned not about the city cuts, but about the lack of an increase for the schools.

South Park

By Laura Knoy on Thursday, May 4, 2006.

It may be simply drawn, but that's the only thing that's simple about the Comedy Central cartoon, South Park. Set in a Colorado mountain town its characters, Cartman, Stan, Kyle, Kenny take on everything that they find hypocritical, whether its government, religion, current events or ethnic and social groups. Some critics find this Peobody-award winning show cutting edge and hilarious, others find it offensive and the epitome of trash TV. As it's once again in the news, we explore the cultural phenomenon of South Park and our love/hate relationship with the show. Laura's guests are Mark Timney, Assistant Professor of Journalism at Keene State College and Robert Thompson, Director of the Bleier Center for Television and Popular Culture at Syracuse University, Professor of Television and Popular Culture at the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications and author or editor of several books on television.
