Media Roundtable

On the next Your Call, it's our Friday Media Roundtable. This week, we'll discuss media coverage of the protests and elections in Egypt as well as the latest news of the Occupy Wall Street protests. Egyptians went to the polls this week following violent and deadly protests in Tehran last week. In Occupy news, Los Angeles has become the latest big city to evict its encampment. Politicians have praised the LAPD for their tactics, though some protesters are still claiming excessive force was used. We'll be joined by AlterNet's Joshua Holland, Alternative Radio's David Barsamian, and writer and journalist Anand Gopal. Where did you see the best reporting this week? It's Your Call, with Angie Coiro and you.

Guests:
Joshua Holland, Senior Writer and Editor at AlterNet

David Barsamian, Founder and Director of Alternative Radio

Anand Gopal, Writer and Journalist
