Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
As the American financial crisis ballooned into a potential global meltdown, the terms of the presidential debate shifted gears. We talk with veteran journalist Marvin Kalb about global response to the financial downturn, the media’s performance in explaining the crisis to lay audiences, and strategies to look out for in the last weeks of a presidential campaign.
