Public Radio Tulsa - NPR Newscast spots.


Since starting at Public Radio Tulsa / KWGS in March 2020, I’ve filed 60 spots for the NPR newscast. Here are five of the 12 I filed over the weekend marking 100 years since the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, when I was in-town pool for President Biden’s visit to Tulsa.
