     The Massachusetts Gaming Commission has launched a new advertising campaign to promote a program that will be used eventually inside all the state’s casinos to reduce problem gambling.

      The program, called GameSense, provides tips about responsible gaming and encourages people to set a budget for how much to wager and to take breaks from gambling.  

            WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill spoke with Mark Vander Linden, the gaming commission’s Director of Research and Responsible Gaming.

The record-setting tenure of Springfield Mayor Domenic Sarno. The 2011 tornado and its recovery that remade the largest city in Western Massachusetts. The fallout from the deadly COVID outbreak at the Holyoke Soldiers Home. Those are just a few of the thousands and thousands of stories WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill has covered for WAMC in his nearly 17 years with the station.
