Today on Boston Public Radio: Five years ago, the New York Times and the New Yorker posted allegations against Harvey Weinstein regarding sexual assault. This week Weinstein is beginning another trial now in Los Angeles. With this in mind we wanted to open our lines to ask: in your day to day life, have your lives changed five years on after #MeToo? Is workplace harassment less tolerable or has it stayed the same? Trenni Casey discussed the NFL’s adjusted concussion protocol. She also talked about rookie quarterback Bailey Zappe’s start to NFL life and the Patriots Week 5 game against the Lions. Casey is a reporter and anchor for NBC Sports Boston, and a weekly Boston Public Radio contributor. Trenni Casey on BPR | Oct. 11, 2022 ACLU of Massachusetts executive director Carol Rose discussed the various SCOTUS cases the league is involved in, and the impact of the Biden Aaministration’s marijuana possession pardons and the risk doctors in blue states take by sending abortion pills to red states. Mayor Michelle Wu joined us for the monthly, hourlong segment ‘Ask the Mayor’ where she took questions from both audience members at the Boston Public Library and from listeners.
