The Media vs. Reality in the Middle East

Caroline Glick (www.jpost.com) from the Jerusalem Post is John's first guest. Together they trace the penchant of global media to come down on the wrong side of issues for over fifty years, while ignoring the wreckage of their failures.


J.C. Davies (www.feverbook.com) writes books about inter-racial dating, which seems like a strange topic for this program. But we'll discuss whether it's possible to get beyond cliches and political correctness in order to have genuine conversations about race.


In the last part of the program, we'll examine the lessons we should learn from the fiasco in the Wisconsin State Legislature. It's especially important to hear testimony from the senate budget committee in Washington this week, which is amazingly candid about the economic storm the United States faces and what needs to be done to fix it.


John's boralogue examines bias in supposedly unbiased media and how it affects their coverage of issues.
