The 2021 KYW Newsradio Executive Briefing — this year, held over Zoom — gave listeners a chance to ask our panel of KYW Newsradio experts questions on the most pressing issues facing the Philadelphia region and the nation in 2021.
Morning drive anchor Ian Bush moderated the panel, which included City Hall bureau chief Pat Loeb, South Jersey and education reporter Mike DeNardo, community affairs reporter and host of Flashpoint Cherri Gregg, suburban bureau chief Jim Melwert, crime and justice reporter Kristen Johanson, and KYW medical expert Dr. Brian McDonough.
The group shared their insights on the inauguration and the first 100 days of the Biden presidency, COVID-19’s impact on the local economy, vaccine distribution, developments at City Hall and in the suburbs, the pandemic’s impact on local education, and more.
The KYW Newsradio Executive Briefing is presented by Independence Blue Cross.
