Dear Friends,

Monday, we talk about the ongoing foreclosure crisis and recent bank settlement. Iowa Attorney General Tom Miller is declaring victory. Others aren’t so sure. Still others claim government sold out to the big banks. If you’ve got a foreclosure tale to share, give me a call tonight at (515) 312-0983.

Tuesday, we talk about Komen’s corporate connections. As Laurence Lewis writes in a recent Daily Kos column, “One example is Komen’s recent partnership with KFC to raise millions of dollars, and of course, just coincidentally, to associate the junk food giant with the promotion of health.” I’d like to thank an anonymous listener with an immediate family member who died of breast cancer for helping sponsor this show.

Wednesday, consumer advocate Mark Cooper talks about nuclear power. Each week, some new information surfaces to make it even clearer what a bad idea is MidAmerican’s ratepayer money grab. And is Warren Buffet really the friend of the people that the media like to paint? Thanks to Iowa Physicians for Social Responsibility for helping to sponsor this show.

Thursday, State Rep Dan Kelley (D-Newton) joins us, as does comedian-activist Lee Camp. This week’s Fallon Forum Freebie is a gift certificate to Leap Day Special at Mojo’s on 86th. We’ll also give away two tickets to “Neighborhood 3: Requisition of Doom,” performing at the Des Moines Social Club this week and next.

So, join the conversation Monday – Thursday from 7:00-8:00 pm at 98.3 FM and online. Call-in at (515) 312-0983 or toll-free at (866) 908-TALK.   You can download the Fallon Forum as a podcast, too.  And don’t forget to visit The Fallon Forum website at fallonforum.com.  Thanks!
