NW Ohio Journal - Larger Cities Roles with Surrounding Communities

The Journal

WBGU-PBS' NW Ohio Journal focused on the responsibility of larger cities/towns and their potential effect on smaller area communities.

Host Tom Walton discusses what role larger cities have with local mayors Carty Finkbeiner from Toledo and Bob Armstrong from Defiance. This panel will examine multiple issues such as the urban/rural relationships and occasional conflicts, as well as "big city problems" and how they compare and contrast to the challenges of smaller cities.

Tom Walton is a retired Editor and Vice President of The Blade and hosts NW Ohio Journal legislative programs.

NW Ohio Journal is WBGU-PBS' weekly public affairs show that covers legislative, education, health, and economic issues, and features rotating hosts with expertise in these areas.
