Marcy,
Yes, I caught that on NPR too and agree it was excellent! The popular show "This American Life" did an episode on border checkpoint resistance videos. The first segment of that episode is terrific as well. In host Ira Glass's words, a reporter had "stumbled on an ATF program of such blinding incompetence, it's kind of hard to fathom." You can listen here:

They have some great stuff on that show from time to time. I like a lot of public radio programming, despite the sometimes liberal bias. Local stations are KALW, 91.7 FM and KQED, 88.5 FM. These days the stations get a relatively small portion of their funding from government.
I'm cross-posting this on some other lists in case someone with firsthand border checkpoint encounters can contact the Union Tribune reporter (see Mike Benoit's message below).
Love & Liberty,
