Congress works GM rescue
(58 min.)
KGT-NEWS: It's been another rough week for General Motors, and probably one of the worst if not the worst on record. GM reported only $16 billion in cash and they burned through $6.9 billion in the 3rd quarter.
Now Congress is working on a $25 billion rescue plan. Sen. Carl Levin introduced the bill. A similar version is being considered in the House with Rep. Barney Frank as the leader of that effort. The NEW GENERATION's Dave Kinchen, Nick Gonzales and Gavin Witter discussed what a GM and Big Three bailout would mean to the industry, but the economy as well with taxpayers already footing several bailout bills.

Obama critiques Constitution/Tax policy changes/MSU beats Wisconsin!
(68 min.)
KGT-NEWS: An audio tape of Sen. Barack Obama surfaced from a Chicago public radio interview in 2001 where Obama calls the Constitution a "charter of negative liberties." In the interview, Obama discusses re-distributative change, leaving many to question what exactly he meant.
The NEW GENERATION's Dave Kinchen, Nick Gonzales and Gavin Witter examine the interview and debate his argument.
Also on this show, Obama's tax policy seems to change slightly as other Democrats change the income levels in which wealthier Americans will be taxed. First $250,000, then $200,000. Gov. Bill Richardson of New Mexico now says the number is $120,000.
Plus, another stunning Michigan State football win over Wisconsin. Hear the final seconds of the game on the podcast!

Presidential Campaigns Go Negative/The Second Presidential Debate
(63 min.)
KGT-NEWS: There were two big stories on this broadcast: the increasingly negative tone of the presidential campaign with accusations of racism, and the Second Presidential Debate. The first concerns recent outbursts from Sen. John McCain supporters at campaign events. An isolated few in the audience were overheard saying things like "terrorist" and "traitor", referring to Sen. Barack Obama.
McCain denounced the statements, as Georgia Congressman John Lewis (D), compared McCain to ex-Gov. George Wallace, a well known racist figure during the Civil Rights movement. McCain denounced the attacks, calling them absurd. The NEW GENERATION agreed.
Following the review of the 2nd Presidential Debate, KGT Business Beat Anchor Nick Gonzales returns to the fold following surgery a few weeks before.
