Every four years, all eyes are focused on Iowa and New Hampshire, the first two states to make their choices for presidential candidates. New Hampshire Public Radio and Iowa Public Radio have teamed up for a series of three one-hour call-in programs exploring key issues being discussed in the 2008 Primary season and how these issues affect voters in our two first-in-the-nation states.
NHPR’s flagship program “The Exchange” and Iowa Public Radio’s program, also called “The Exchange”, collaborated on producing these three shows. Each program is co-hosted by NHPR’s Laura Knoy and IPR’s Ben Kieffer. The programs were broadcast live on NHPR and IPR at 2:00 pm EST, 1:00 pm CST on Wednesday, Nov. 14th, Wednesday, Nov. 28th and Wednesday, December 12th.
The Iowa/New Hampshire Exchange won an regional RTNDA Edward R. Murrow Award, in the News Documentary, Small Market category, first place in large market radio in the Documentary/Special category in the Northwest Broadcast News Association's awards, and second place in the 2007 Public Affairs/Talk Show category from the New Hampshire Associated Press Broadcasters Association.
