Currently airing on more than 70 stations in the U.S., NPR's Justice Talking is quickly becoming America's source for insight on the hot-button legal issues we all read about, think about and talk about every day. The weekly, one-hour program is moderated by veteran NPR correspondent Margot Adler and features the nation's leading advocates who face off in down-to-earth, free-wheeling debate. Taped before a live audience, each debate begins with a feature report that provides the human story behind the topic, prepared by a talented team of public radio correspondents. Margot Adler asks her own challenging questions and then fields questions from the diverse and knowledgeable audience.
Recognized by the New York Times for its "quality and depth," Justice Talking has been the recipient of several awards including the Nancy Dickerson Whitehead Award for Excellence in Reporting, the New York Festival's Gold Medal Award, and the Civic Mind Award for excellence in public education about the law.
"Justice Talking ... is a substantive and thought-[provoking program that ... captures the tough challenges legislators face in coming up with policies that balance public [concerns]. By giving both sides equal time, the program explores the complexities of the issue ... [it] is an example of journalistic excellence" Leslie Stahl
