On the February 19th edition of Your Call, it’s our Friday media roundtable. This week, we’ll discuss coverage of Justice Antonin Scalia’s death.
How are the media reporting on his legacy and influence on the Supreme Court’s major decisions affecting abortion, voting rights, money in politics, and labor? We’ll also discuss the worsening humanitarian situation in Syria, as continued Russian bombings have created a new wave of refugees. Join the conversation, on the next Your Call, with Rose Aguilar, and you.
