Midday Metro starts after the 10 a.m. news

Spend an hour watching prime time television and you'll see evidence that soft-core porn has moved into the mainstream. Dr. Gail Dines, professor of sociology at Wheelock College in Boston, says the impact is far reaching, including a prevailing slut-culture among today's teens. Dines will be at Westminster College Wednesday evening to talk about Sex(ism), Identity, and Intimacy in a Pornographic Culture. Midday Metro gets a preview. To get the information mentioned by Dr. Dines, you can email  stoppornculture@gmail.com.

 

Plus, The Bottomline will look at the Utah Legislature from a small business perspective with Mary Corporon and Dr. Lauren Florence of the Vest Pocket Business Coalition. Specifically, the upside of HB 47, Standards for Exchange of Electronic Health Information.
