Graphic by Matilda Bliss
Welcome back, readers and listeners. Our latest Asheville Bladecast episode, recorded just before Xmas, is a wide-ranging look at a bevy of recent stories with a very common theme: corruption.
That’s right, we’ve got corrupt politicians, preachers, gentry gays, non-profit hatchetmen, school boards, bureaucrats, lawyers, superintendents, cops and — of course — realtors. Corruption is truly what makes Asheville’s status quo go ’round, and Blade reporter Matilda Bliss and editor David Forbes are here to talk about what that does to our communities.
Listen here.
As always, thanks to the wonderful folks at Asheville FM for making the Bladecast possible.
