Does anyone watch this program? She did a program this week on North Dakota (Williston) and their growing economy. She also pointed out the negatives concerning this economy. It was very interesting. Sean Hannity goes on and on about the low unemployment in this state. This is true but life is very different. They make good money but do not have housing available. If housing is available, you will be paying what you do in New York. Also, they are having trouble with s' x trafficking and drugs. She is such a good journalist. I really enjoy her.

I just found this program a few weeks ago. I like her grassroots approach to her stories . I have thought that she was a true professional and her selection of stories is always current and interesting. So refreshing to see a fact based story with a calm voiced journalist.

I have watched it twice so far and really find it very informative. The North Dakota shows so far have been very interesting. Nothing i had really heard before. I knew there were crazy good paying jobs up in NorthDakota , and my husband even had commented howa few of my sons friends( nwho are in their 20's) should go up there for a few years. Afer seeing the shows I would be hesitant. The price of housing is crazy, but I think more and more we may be seeing some violence since it is not an ideal work or after work envirionment.

I just watched for the first time last night. I intend to watch again. Informative - and it seemed last night at least to be apolitical.

I SAW THIS SHOW TOO. I LIKE LISA LING A LOT. SHE KNOWS HOW TO TELL A STORY.

HAVE HER ON MY DVR. JUST SAW THE SHOW ON UTAH DRUG PROBLEM.

When I saw the promos, I thought What a downer. But I watched part of the PTSD show last night and it was very informative. Now I wish I'd seen the SD story.

I love the show but CNN is in contract talks with Turner. Dish Network customers are out of luck. Can't get Lisa's show.

I love her shows. CNN has added really good programming with Anthony Bourdain, Mike Rowe, and now Lisa Ling. All are incredibly enjoyable.
