Interview:
Muncie, Indiana has been under the microscope of American sociologists for the better part of a century now. Middletown, USA. The archetype. The tuning fork. Know Muncie and you know the land, was the idea.
Well, if that's true, two big reporters now say, we are in trouble – or, at least ready for some major change. They've gone back to Muncie and found Americans giving up on just about everything. Banks, schools, city hall, church. "In Nothing We Trust" is their headline. Wooph!
This hour, On Point: When it all falls down. We're going back to Muncie.
