Top Stories: Winning Comes At A Price For Dallas Cowboys' Fans; AIDS On Stage

Gus Contreras / KERA News

The top local stories this afternoon from KERA News: The Dallas Cowboys are flying high. The team’s on an eight-game winning streak, and has the best record in the NFL. KERA’s Gus Contreras reports, success can be costly  for fans.

Other stories this afternoon:

  • Across the country, rents are soaring and homeownership rates are declining. A forum in Dallas on Friday aims to raise awareness of housing issues, and to make housing reform a priority in Washington. 
  • The epic stage drama ‘Angels in America’ won the Pulitzer Prize. It’s been turned into an HBO film and an opera, but Tony Kushner’s play was written in the early ‘90s about events more than 30 years ago: the onslaught of AIDS and the Reagan administration’s lack of response. 

You can listen to North Texas stories weekdays at 8:22 a.m. and 6:20 p.m. on KERA 90.1 FM.
