A Changing ForceToday's show is a best-of, so we won't be taking any calls. But the comments page is always open!
New York City’s police force has become more diverse, more focused on counter-terrorism, and has expanded communication with federal intelligence agencies in the ten years since 9/11. NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly discusses the changing scope and nature of the force as part of the Decade 9/11 series. Plus: Larry King reflects on 50 years of asking questions; tennis legend Billie Jean King discusses the President and First Lady’s agenda on national fitness; a history of debt; independent and minority voters; and the retail politics of working in a mall.
