President-elect Trump's first formal news conference lasted into today's Up To Date broadcast, so the show is shorter than usual. 

It includes a look at the War Against War, and the protests that almost kept the United States out of World War I. This week's Local Listen features Kansas rap duo Lincoln Marshall.
