On the Media

About this episode

Financial reporters, old and new, try to get to the truth of the current crisis, while the truth does nothing when it comes to correcting political misinformation and the truth comes out on the Rosenbergs. Plus, wiretapping the internet, the hottest rhetorical device in Washington, and a look back at David Foster Wallace.
