Media Roundtable

On the next Your Call, it's our Friday Media Roundtable. This week, we'll discuss media coverage of the Occupy movements as cities begin to crack down on demonstrators and dismantle camps. Occupy Oakland has received international attention after it was raided by the Oakland Police. How are protests in the US covered in other parts of the word? We'll be joined by the New York Review of Books' Jeff Madrick and Alternet's Josh Holland and Guardian's Zoe Williams. Where did you see the best reporting this week? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Jeff Madrick, a regular contributor to The New York Review of Books.

Joshua Holland, an editor and senior writer at AlterNet.

Zoe Williams, a columnist for the Guardian of London
