Gloria Steinem has joined forces with actress and activist Jane Fonda to bring what they call "a little bit of sanity" back to talk radio. The two have founded Greenstone Media to develop radio programming by and for women, who are abandoning talk radio as it becomes more mean-spirited and extreme. "Multiple points of view will be presented," Steinem said. "And if a caller disagrees with a viewpoint, she won't be told she's stupid." So far, they have recruited Maureen Langan, Cory Kahaney, Nelsie Spencer, Rolonda Watts, and Mo Gaffney to host various shows. Programming has begun to appear on various FM stations around the country. For information, visit http://www.greenstoneradio.com.
