Spotlight on Concussions – Tune in Tuesday Concussions have been the subject of much discussion on both the local and national scale. FRONTLINE League of Denial Image The spotlight will shine even brighter on Tuesday, October 8 when the PBS FRONTLINE series kicks off its latest season with the premiere of its special investigation, League of Denial: The NFL’s Concussion Crisis. This two-hour special “details how, for years, the league denied and worked to refute scientific evidence that the violent collisions at the heart of the game are linked to an alarming incidence of early onset dementia, catastrophic brain damage, and other devastating consequences for some of football’s all-time greats.” Following this broadcast, we’ll localize this topic and focus on how this subject affects Minnesotans. In Concussion Dilemma: Minnesota Reacts, Minnesota students, parents, sports professionals, and medical experts explore the implications for students in a variety of sports. This half-hour program is presented with HealthPartners and Mayo Clinic.
