What do radio silence, the FCC, net neutrality, President Trump’s first solo press conference, and Richard Wagner have in common? Welcome to In-Studio from Life of the Law.
Each month we present an investigative feature report and two weeks later our team of scholars, journalists, producers and guests meet up in the studios of KQED in San Francisco to talk about the investigation, the law in the news, and the law on our minds.
Join our In Studio team for a conversation about the law in our lives…This month it’s the FCC, NPR, net neutrality, and President Trump’s first solo press conference.
