Insight on Business the News Hour with Michael Libbie is a production         
of our advertising agency, Insight Advertising, Marketing & Communications and is the only business broadcast in the Des Moines Metro. The News Hour is made possible through the sponsorship of: Merit Resources of Urbandale, Iowa Computer Repair of Windsor Heights, ReMax Real Estate Concepts of the Des Moines Metro, the Iowa Association of Business and Industry, DWebware of Urbandale, The Strudl Haus of Des Moines, Manpower of Central Iowa and the Kreamer Law Firm of West Des Moines.

Last year 39 Iowans died from work related injuries. Each year trade unions mark April 28th as an International Day of Mourning.  We were there for the reading of the 39 names and then a brief conversation with Mark Cooper the president of the South Central Federation of Labor AFL/CIO for insight as to the meaning of the event.
