Beyond the News

Episode 1 | 30s

Headlines share the facts, but not always the emotions behind them. Cathy Kang, who served as a vice presidential military aide during 9/11, confronts her grief; Christopher James works to protect his grieving mother from an online romance scam; and Rich Foy returns to his Kentucky hometown after a deadly tornado. Three storytellers, three interpretations of BEYOND THE NEWS. Hosted by Wes Hazard.

Stories from the Stage is a collaboration of WORLD and GBH.
Extras
Love changes. People leave. Time moves on. But some love leaves a mark that lasts.
We’re taught to protect the heart – until love asks us to lead with it
Truth can be more unbelievable than anything imagined.
Sometimes, determination calls for creativity.
The path to – and through – motherhood is rarely a straight line.
Sometimes what guides us most feels as natural as breathing.
Not all gifts come neatly wrapped or arrive when we expect them.
Love is rarely simple, and it almost never looks the way we imagine it will.
What is home? A house filled with memory? A country we long for? A person we can’t live without?
Life delivers moments that are so strange, so charged, they linger long after they’ve passed.
