State of Play

The Brian Lehrer Show | Jan 12, 2012

Mayor Bloomberg’s State of the City address laid out plans for the future of the five boroughs. WNYC reporters discuss the progress he described and what’s next for his administration. Then, Dylan Ratigan of MSNBC discusses his new book on financial regulations. Plus: your calls on education as a civil right ahead of Martin Luther King Jr. Day; the latest from Iran, the death of nuclear scientists, and Stuxnet; and when was the last time you attended a performance which was interrupted by a cell phone?

WNYC is funded by sponsors and member donations
