The latest episode of my In The Court Of Public Opinion radio program looks at the Occupy Wall Street movement. A week after the protestors were removed from Zuccotti Park in Lower Manhattan, we look at how the strange legal status of "Publicly Owned Private Spaces" like Zuccotti Park allowed the movement to take up permanent residence. We also talk bank bailouts with the former Inspector General of the federal government’s TARP program, and look at the way student loan debt has contributed to the movement.
Guests include Harvard Professor Jerold Kayden, author of the definitive book on Public Owned Private Spaces; Neil Barofsky, the former Treasury Department Inspector General overseeing TARP; and Jenna Ashley Robinson of the Pope Center for Higher Education Policy.
Happy listening!
