In Sickness and in Health...

By Shay Zeller on Thursday, July 6, 2006.

In 1986, Newsweek magazine said that women over 40 were more likely to be killed by a terrorist than get married. It was a false statement, and last month the magazine admitted it made a mistake. We're going to take a look at the state of "I-do's" in 2006…we'll find out why marriage statistics in the 1950's are now viewed as abnormal, and why the image of marital bliss then, was a PR sham. Join us for a critical walk down the wedding aisle with University of New Hampshire professor Jean Elson and Jean Trounstine, author and professor of Humanities at Middlesex Community College. Trounstine is the co-editor of the new book Why I'm Still Married.
