The weekly NewsCut Facebook Live — special every-couple-of-months edition — with MPR News host John Wannamaker, who is contractually guaranteed to appear taller and younger than me on Facebook videos.
Bob Collins retired from Minnesota Public Radio in 2019 after 12 years of writing NewsCut and pointing out to complainants that posts weren’t news stories.
