Executive Branch Season 3 Episode 2
Episode description
Would you believe that a popular governor perishing in a plane crash was NOT the lead story? On the exact same day, the networks were airing ANOTHER huge breaking news event . Find out which one on this episode of Top Fold.
Top Fold is dedicated to, "All the news that would have been". What does that mean? That means that on 9/11, or when the Hindenburg exploded, or Elvis Presley died, headlines were replaced and stories fell below the fold. What event happened that was huge but wasn’t talked about because something else monumental took the headlines? The -name of the podcast comes from a combination of "TOP Story" and "Above the FOLD"-TOP FOLD.
Original music by David "Beezer" Wagler.
