Media Roundtable

On the next Your Call, it's our Friday Media Roundtable. This week, President Obama announced plans to change the military mission in Iraq from combat to support. How did the media cover his promise? We'll also discuss the Sacramento Bee's investigation that found widespread suppression of inmates' rights. And we'll talk about the launch of KALW's The Informant, which focuses on criminal justice coverage. We'll be joined by the Sacramento Bee's Charles Piller, New Internationalist's Hadani Ditmars and KALW's Rina Palta. What grabbed your attention this week? It's Your Call with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Charles Piller, staff reporter with Sacramento Bee
Rina Palta, a reporter with KALW News, Cross Currents
Hadani Ditmars, a co-editor of New Internationalist and author of Dancing in the No Fly Zone
