Your Call: Media coverage of Italy's referendum & Steve Mnuchin's 'foreclosure machine'

On the next Your Call, it’s our media roundtable. This week, we’ll discuss coverage of the failed referendum in Italy, and the country’s dire economic conditions.

We’ll also talk about Donald Trump’s Treasury Secretary nominee Steven Mnuchin, a former Goldman Sachs banker who made tens of millions of dollars during the foreclosure crisis. How are the media covering his record and his proposed massive tax cuts? Join us live at 10 am on the next Your Call with Rose Aguilar.
