Your Call 072108 What's next in Iran-US relations?
Your Call 071808 Media Roundtable
On the next Your Call it's our Friday Media Roundtable, the day we discuss how the media covered the week's top stories. This week, the IndyMac Bank collapsed, we got higher inflation numbers, and the Bush administration proposed even more bailouts. Are the media giving you the context you need to understand what's happening? We'll also will talk about coverage of California's fires with Neil Shea of National Geographic. Where did the media shine this week and where did it fall short? It's Your Call with Rose Aguilar, and you.
Guests:
Amy Gluckman, co-editor of Dollars & Sense
Neil Shea, staff writer for National Geographic
Russell Carollo, Sacramento Bee staff writer
