MSCS Oversight...Willie Approved!

5:51 pm - Nation of Jake

A bill for the state to establish an oversight board for Memphis Shelby County Schools was APPROVED by the Tennessee State Senate and House. The vote in the House was 73-19 and the State Senate result was 27-6. The governor’s desk will soon receive the bill, and Democrats are saying it's all racist. Shocked?

Also on the show: Memphians are upset at NBA Commissioner Adam Silver for wanting the Grizzlies to play some games in Nashville, tiny earthquake tremors were (allegedly) felt in the Mid-South, and syndicated columnist Ron Hart joins the show to talk Iran.
