THE WEEKEND PRIMETIME NEWSLETTER
AMERICA'S NEWSCHANNEL MSNBC
Friday September 20th- Sunday September 22nd, 2002
We have some great news! One of MSNBC's documentaries is opening tonight at a
theater in Los Angeles. It's called "No Place Like Home" and follows several homeless
families as they search for a better life. Some families will make it, some won't,
and they all will make you think about the things many of us take for granted--
school, food, and privacy, for example. If you live in the LA area and would like to
attend one of the screenings... just stop by. Here's the info. Hope to see you there:
