GRITtv: Who Asks the Real Questions?
The biggest media news this week came last night when it was announced that Lou Dobbs would be leaving his CNN program. Yet there were plenty of other questions to ask this week about news coverage, and Jon Stewart can't be the only one critiquing the major media outlets. Rose Aguilar, of Your Call Radio, John R. MacArthur, president and publisher of Harper's magazine, Dan Gross, columnist at Newsweek, and Hendrik Hertzberg of The New Yorker look at the media's biggest hits and misses of the past week.
GRITtv: Nov. 12, 2009

She's the founder of Project Air, where she uses yoga to help women and girls in Rwanda, survivors of the genocide, reconnect with their bodies and heal their spirits. Summerbell joined us in the GRITtv studio to talk about her project and her plans to expand it into the Congo and other areas of the world, like Gaza and Afghanistan. And more news.
