The post-pandemic future: "fireside chat" with Rep. McKeown on KXCR 90.7 FM, Oregon Central Coast Radio
The novel coronavirus pandemic is unlike any challenge we have ever faced. For many rural Oregonians, the pandemic has exposed inequality that has become the face of Oregon’s urban-rural divide. Join KXCR 90.7 FM, Florence Radio, May 26th at 5:00 p.m. as we chat with State Representative Caddy McKeown about retirement, the impact of COVID-19 on rural communities, education, and health care.
The event will be livestream to multiple platforms at the same time. Find us on Facebook and audio ttps://www.twitch.tv/kxcr_streaming
In our interview with Representative Caddy McKeown, we will borrow a theme from one of radio's historical legacies -- the "fireside chats." During his Presidency, Franklin D. Roosevelt used radio to deliver "fireside chats," to speak directly with constituents about the economic crisis at hand.
