An interview I recorded a few weeks back is airing on NPR’s Justice Talking this week:
Casino gambling has undergone a boom in recent years as cash-strapped states and Native American tribes have opened casinos and entertainment complexes across the nation. In this edition of Justice Talking, we’ll take a look at who is profiting from these developments. Will casino gambling raise the state revenues that have been promised? How will gambling affect local neighborhoods and gamblers? Tune in this week as we look at whether casinos are a win or loss for communities.
Justice Talking: Casino Gambling
If you click through and listen to the show, you’ll hear me happily rattling on about gambling and history, an update from an Illinois state senator, and a debate between Rev. Tom Grey, who hates casino, and Harrah’s Entertainment’s Jan Jones, who presumably doesn’t.
