Former L.A. Times Editors Speak Out
What is it really like to run one of the largest daily newspapers in the country? Writer R.J. Smith learned quite a bit about it when he spoke with all the living former editors of the Los Angeles Times. Larry talks with Smith about his conversation which marked the first time all six gentlemen were in the same room at the same time. Smith's piece, "Ripped from the Headlines," appears in the May issue of Los Angeles Magazine.
President Jimmy Carter's Meeting With Hamas Officials
Larry Mantle discusses Jimmy Carter's meeting with Hamas with Salam Al Mariyati, Director and Co-founder of the Muslim Public Affairs Council, and Seth Brysk, Executive Director of the American Jewish Committee in Los Angeles.
"Bully-Proofing" Your Child
Bullies have long been a problem on the playground, and now they can even reach your child at home through the internet. Many schools have adopted bully-prevention programs, but they have met with limited success. While it may be difficult to prevent bullying behavior, is there a way to shield your child from being hurt by it? Larry Mantle talks with bullying expert Sherryll Kraizer about her book "Ten Days to a Bully-Proof Child." The book is a step by step guide to teaching children assertiveness skills in order to better prepare them for run-ins with their predatory peers.
