On this edition of Your Call’s Media Roundtable, we're discussing the new FRONTLINE documentary, Yemen's COVID Cover-Up, which focuses on how the coronavirus pandemic has deepened the worst humanitarian crisis in the world.
Later in the show, we'll find out how the pandemic has increased demand at diaper banks across the US and resulted in a diaper backlog. One in three families could not afford diapers before the pandemic.
Guests:
Nawal al-Maghafi, award winning reporter and filmmaker, and FRONTLINE correspondent
Hannah Denham, national business reporter on The Washington Post's breaking news team
