After today, only a philistine would be caught wearing white. And after listening to today’s show, only a Neanderthal wouldn’t know what all the important news of the summer was. It’s our Labor Day version of the news quiz. Bill Falk of The Week leads off the first hour with National and International news questions, and Annette Fuentes, formerly of Newsday and The Daily News plays the closer in the second hour with local news ones. Call in and show us what you got!
