“Black Eye” on Facebook
The social networking site Facebook gets caught sharing its members’ transactions without getting permission. Hear what they’re doing in response to the protests. Time Magazine correspondent Karen Tumulty discusses Huckabee's response to Romney's Mormonism and Obama's new role as the leading democratic contender in Iowa. Also, going to the polls in Russia and Venezuela – what it means to people there and people here. Finally, a call-in: Imus is back, should we forgive and forget?

Egg on Your Facebook
Sree Sreenivasan, dean of students and professor at Columbia Journalism School, tech reporter for WNBC-TV and co-founder South Asian Journalists Association, talks about the controversy over privacy and Facebook.

Cohen, professor of history and Russian and Slavic Studies at New York University and the author of several books on Russia, discuss the state of democracy in both countries and what role the U.S. can or should play in promoting democracy around the world.
