Media Roundtable

On the next Your Call, it's our Friday Media Roundtable. This week, we'll discuss media coverage of the Republican primary race, the continuing protests on Wall Street, the debt crisis in Europe, and the ten year anniversary of U.S. military presence in Afghanistan. We'll be joined by independent journalist Mark Hertsgaard, Guardian columnist Jonathan Steele--whose latest book Ghosts of Afghanistan was published earlier this month--and Anand Gopal, who covers Afghanistan and Egypt. Join us live at 10 or send us an email to feedback@yourcallradio.org. Where did you see the best reporting this week? It's Your Call, with Matt Martin and you.

Guests:

Jonathan Steele, Guardian columnist and foreign correspondent, whose latest book Ghosts of Afghanistan was published earlier this month.

Anand Gopal, a writer and journalist who covers Afghanistan and Egypt for a number of newspapers and magazines
