Edgar & Louise S. Monroe Library, Loyola University New Orleans Title WYES Informed Sources Archive Date 1984 - Present Extent 5 boxes Subject Headings WYES-TV (Television station : New Orleans, La.) Administrative/Biographical History In 1984, WYES, New Orleans' public television station, began broadcasting Informed Sources, a program devoted to in-depth discussion of the news by local journalists. During that first show, a panel of journalists speculated about the reasons for the financial dilemmas of the Louisiana World Exposition, locally known as the World's Fair. Now more than two decades later, every Friday night at 7:00 p.m., Louisiana's newsmen and women continue to speculate, discuss and examine the news of the week. The idea for Informed Sources originated in 1971 on WYES with City Desk, a news and talk show, which featured the staff of the New Orleans States-Item and ran for seven seasons. The station had been without a news program for several years when Marcia Kavanaugh Radlauer, an experienced television reporter and independent producer, was asked to create a new show. Like City Desk, the format was a panel discussion of current news, but instead of featuring journalists from only one source, a variety of participants from television, radio, newspapers and eventually, online newsletters contributed their talents and expertise. Informed Sources originally included a "Newsmakers" interview to help fill the half-hour, but before long that segment was omitted.

Louisiana: Hot and Spicy! Jonathan O. Knuckey, Christine L. Day, and Charles D. Hadley At the beginning of the 2004 presidential election campaign, Louisiana was considered a potential “battleground” state. While George W. Bush had won the Bayou State in 2000, his victory margin of just under eight percent- age points was modest, and the smallest margin of any of the five Deep South states. Given that Bill Clinton had carried the state twice in the 1990s, and, given a Democratic advantage in party identification, Democratic strategists felt that the Kerry/Edwards ticket could at least make the Bush- Cheney ticket spend time and valuable resources defending the state, but it was not to be. Political Context Democratic optimism in Louisiana was motivated by the fact that the party had won two closely contested statewide elections in the previous two years.
