Your Call: Voting irregularities in NY; US-Saudi relations

On the April 22nd edition of  Your Call, it’s our Friday media roundtable. This week, we’ll discuss coverage of President Obama’s visit to Saudi Arabia and calls by former Senator Bob Graham to declassify a US government top secret 9/11 report.

Graham says the classified documents prove that Saudi Arabia financed the 9/11 attacks. We’ll also talk about voting problems in the New York primaries. Why were so many people purged from the polls? It’s Your Call, with Rose Aguilar, and you.

Guests:

Craig Unger, investigative journalist and a contributing editor to Vanity Fair

Joshua Holland, contributor to The Nation and a fellow with The Nation Institute
