  • General Wesley Clark

    A tenth hat is now in the ring! We’ll get a profile of General Wesley Clark and talk to an organizer from “New York for Clark.” We’ll also discuss the collapse of the huge Enron corporation with one of the Wall Street Journal reporters who reported as it went down, taking investors and employees along with it—even as top executives pocketed millions of dollars. All that and the ethics of file-sharing, as well as Stanley Crouch on the upcoming film “The Human Stain.”
