‘Selling Sex in Silver Valley’ author on KXLY today

You can see a taped interview between Melissa Luck and author Heather Branstetter at 6 p.m. today on Channel 4.

“True confessions: I like stories of old-timey hookers. And, I’m obsessed with Wallace, Idaho. That means this book was the jackpot for me. Not only did I read it, I wrote a news story on it. Two birds, one stone. And, a fascinating ride. … I heard someone had written a book about the history of the sex trade in Wallace and I knew I would have to read it. Then, I heard it was selling faster than they could print it - and, I knew I wanted to tell the story on TV. That’s what’s cool about being a journalist; you find something that interests you, then you can get paid to go learn more about it. I called Dr. Heather Branstetter (seen above, answering all my brilliant questions) and set up a visit to Wallace”/Melissa Luck, KXLY. More here .
