Listen "Behind the scenes: CNN producer on Kentucky unemployment documentary"
Episode Synopsis
CNN Special Reports producer Matthew Reynard joins WDRB's Chris Otts and Gilbert Corsey to discuss the making of the network's recent hourlong special on Kentucky's unemployment insurance failure. Why did CNN chose to focus on Kentucky? How did the team handle the suicide of former unemployment director Muncie McNamara only 11 days after he was interviewed for the program and before it aired? The documentary, "The Price We Paid: The economic cost of COVID" premiered March 27. It is available to pay-TV subscribers on CNNgo and video-on-demand services.
