Public Radio Blood Feud 2012

On January 5th, 2012 the public radio show This American Life tweeted an olive branch to the public radio show On The Media: "It's a new year - should we end our blood feud?" The feud was of course imaginary, but it did result in an amusing thread.

  1. Hey @onthemedia - it's a new year. Should we end our blood feud?
  2. @ThisAmerLife @onthemedia And thus peace was restored to the to realm of public radio...

  6. Jad co-hosts Radiolab
  7. @JadAbumrad @onthemedia @TheMoth @ThisAmerLife Jad's ready to rumble! The fear center on yr brain MRI are about to light up like fireworks!
  8. .@petersagal just followed us. Wonder if he's planning to throw the gauntlet.
  9. @onthemedia I'm just bitter I'm not being included in the feud. Do I not offend enough?
  10. .@petersagal Oh we've got plans for you. We just didn't want to play our hand.
  11. .@mikebaz @petersagal Carl Kassel is the Don Corleone of public radio. No one messes with him.
  12. @onthemedia @petersagal First Peter, then @nprfreshair... then the world? The world being All Things Considered, of course.
