Howard Berkes, NPR's champion of rural reporting, is retiring

Nice sit-down in the Weekly Yonder with NPR's Howard Berkes and his take on journalism, rural areas, and the regulatory failures in the coal industry as he heads to retirement.

Berkes led the way in showin how national news orgs should report on that "other" America. He deserves a solid retirement, but kinda sad to see him go. He's a solid journalist.

I'd love to see us somehow get him on a panel.
