In Our Backyard


Production of "In Our Backyard" Suspended
A recent article in the Albany Times Union has made some serious allegations against New York State Wildlife Pathologist Dr. Ward Stone, host of WAMC’s popular environmental program, “In Our Backyard.” A state investigation has been opened into Dr. Stone’s alleged misconduct.

WAMC believes in the concept that everyone is innocent until proven guilty. We are grateful to Ward Stone for his generous volunteer contribution to WAMC’s “In Our Backyard” program and for his tireless work for the state as Wildlife Pathologist. We hope these allegations prove to be false, nevertheless, we believe it is prudent to suspend production of the program until these charges are resolved.

WAMC news will continue to cover this story.

We invite listeners to join us every Monday night at 8:30 and Saturday afternoon at 1:30 for "The Best of Medical Monday." Here's a second chance to listen in as Alan Chartock speaks with some of the region's top medical professionals about the newest medical advances and treatments, asking the questions you want answered. Listening is good for you -- it might even save your life.
