Significant changes in the sonic landscape of money talk in 2013 have gone without much comment during this, the season when year-in-review pieces take up space usually reserved for news or, at least, fresh commentary.
Public radio gave us some of the best work all year. NPR's Planet Money team produced an ambitious bit of original enterprise reporting on their own Planet Money T-shirt. It is a remarkable piece of journalism. Funded through a Kickstarter campaign, the series followed the process of making of an ordinary piece of clothing around the world a couple of times before the used Ts end up sold in bulk in the global rag trade. Fabulous storytelling, rich detail and surprising economic lessons - even and especially through the false starts.
