BACK TO THE TRIBE

 

When you hear NPR correspondent Robert Krulwich’s name attached to any story you can be sure that it will involve very original and probably unorthodox storytelling.  He’s tackled a myriad of topics over the years, like Yawning, and interest rates.  He left NPR for several years to work in television news.  This is the story of why he came back.

 

Several additional members of the NPR tribe have left, and come back.  Ira Flatow, NPR’s Science correspondent left for television, and came back to NPR, correspondents Tom Gjelten and Ketzel Levine, editor Richard Harris. The reasons they left are varied.  And the reasons they came back 

 

In a way – coming back to the tribe is something we do with our radios every day.  Each time we spin the dial to another station we go away. And each time we come back – there’s an unmistakable feeling of coming home. Support your tribe, become a tribal member and make a pledge today.
