The GuillemotsRolling Stone tests China's Waters
Rolling Stone magazine has launched a Chinese edition, although minus the sex, drugs and politics. The magazine, which hit news stands this month, comes out at a time when many are questioning the Western media's new role in the country. Wall Street Journal reporter Geoffrey A. Fowler joins us with some insight. Also: Not long ago, Olga Kern was a struggling single mother in Russia trying to make a living as a pianist. Now she has a busy concert career and legions of fans, following her gold medal in the 2001 Van Cliburn competition. She joins us to perform live in advance of her Alice Tully Hall debut on Thursday night. Finally, British band The Guillemots join us to perform selections from their new album, "From the Cliffs," a mix of experimental pop sounds.
