Radio headlines this week include: DC thinks FM radio can save AM radio; Snowden says U.S. has not offered any plea deals; BBC is looking for radio theater scripts; FCC considers Citizens Broadband Radio Service; and FCC considers cutting costs of prison phone calls. Then we listen to radio hoaxes, including a fake CNN headline news interview. And, nearing the 77th anniversary of Orson Welles' broadcast of "The War of the Worlds" the show tunes in his press conference the next day, and an interview with Welles and author H.G. Wells two years later. Plus, "Teddy Bear" by Red Sovine.
