Media Roundtable

On the next Your Call, it's our Friday Media Roundtable. This week, we'll discuss coverage of the financial crisis and find out why no one has been held accountable.

The NPR sting, the Planned Parenthood sting and the ACORN sting were targeting institutions that are controversial only if you think it's controversial for teen girls to get necessary medical care, or controversial to empower poor people to vote. Anyone who thinks NPR is too liberal or is cosy with Muslims is delusional.

And yes, please go after James O'Keefe's highly selective editing techniques and highly partisan agenda.
