David Kestenbaum is the NPR science reporter I talk about often in class. He's always cited by public radio people as an example of a great storyteller, who often works with less than compelling source material. As we debated whether to include the story about the Hadron particle accelerator in our mock newscast, I got to thinking that if Kestenbaum was telling the story, I'd definitely want to hear it. Here's a story he did back in April, as the project was just getting revved up.

Kestenbaum tells a really good story. The technical side of the particle accelerator is pretty hard for anyone outside of Stephen Hawking to understand. So, Kestenbaum injects humor at good intervals while tracing the chronology of a rainy day in Switzerland. Good stuff.
