Problem with NPR story

I just received the following from AAUW:

The NewsHour interview with AAUW Executive Director Linda Hallman was to be a point-counterpoint discussion with gender equity writer Tom Mortensen. The communication lines with Des Moines, where Mortensen is just went down making him unreachable, and no last minute replacement could be found; so the feature was canceled. There is some chance that it will be rescheduled for tomorrow. We will let you know if it is rescheduled.

Sorry about that to all,
