The Age of AIDS...

Tonight at 8, WPT presents Frontline's groundbreaking two-part documentary, "The Age of AIDS." Due to the WPT Auction last week, this program is being presented in Wisconsin one week later than most other PBS stations. It is still an extremely timely in-depth look into a disease that has affected so many facets of life worldwide during the past 25 years. The program's second part airs Wednesday night at 8. The program can already be viewed in its entirety here.

Even more than most Frontline pieces, this program rightfully drummed up a lot of coverage in the press during the past couple of weeks. To catch WPT viewers up with what was said around the country, Be more Tuned In has pulled together a sampling of the coverage.

On Wisconsin Public Radio, Peter Donalds spoke for an hour with Renata Simone, the producer and reporter of "The Age of AIDS." If you have the free RealPlayer media player installed on your computer, you can hear their conversation here.

Below are four separate commentaries and reviews of the program from newspapers nationwide:

The Toronto Star

The New York Times
