In an interview on Sunday with MPR News and several other news outlets in Minnesota, Sen. Al Franken said “I know I have a lot of work to do to regain the trust of people I’ve let down.”

Bob Collins retired from Minnesota Public Radio in 2019 after 12 years of writing NewsCut and pointing out to complainants that posts weren’t news stories. A son of Massachusetts, he was a news editor 1992-1998, created the MPR News regional website in 1999, invented the popular Select A Candidate, started several blogs, and every day lamented that his Minnesota Fantasy Legislature project never caught on.
