SEATTLE, WA
(KPLU) -
When it comes to telling a good story, NPR's Scott Simon is one of the best. The long-time host of Saturday's Weekend Edition has won the prestigious Peabody award, among other notable honors. Simon was in Seattle this past weekend to accept another award. The Krista Foundation supports humanitarian work by young adults both here and abroad. Simon was given the foundation's Global Citizen Award for what it calls his humor, grace and journalistic rigor in an often unjust world.' KPLU's Gary Davis talks with Scott Simon about his craft, and its place in our fast-paced, multi-media culture.
