(Weekend Edition, NPR.org, Saturday, March 3, 2012). Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield, co-founders of Ben & Jerry's ice cream, are part of a group of business leaders trying to raise money for Occupy Wall Street to help it regain its earlier momentum. NPR host Scott Simon talks with them about how they've already raised $300,000 and aim to raise $1.5 million more.
