WOW - you really need to listen to this . . .

I was driving to an appointment the other day and I saw a bumper-sticker that really hit a cord with me. The impact of the statement was made more profound as it directly coincided with a recent download of an audio file from iTunes.

The bumper sticker: "If you're not outraged - you're not paying attention"

The free audio file downloadable from iTunes: "This American Life," Act 1 "Bait and Switch," dated November 08, 2009.

You can also download a free MP3 file of "Episode 394" at: http://www.thisamericanlife.org/Radio_Episode.aspx?episode=394

I encourage you to listen to the first "Act" (for those not familiar with "This American Life," the program is broken into acts or mini-stories that all revolve around a common theme each week) of the 1-hour audio program. It truly is a very startling journalistic vignette.
