Citi Bike Financial Woes; Jimmy Carter; New Yorker Cartoons

The Brian Lehrer Show | Mar 25, 2014

Even on the coldest winter days, New Yorkers take thousands of Citi Bike rides each day – but the bike sharing system is apparently in big financial trouble. WNYC’s Kate Hinds and Andrea Bernstein explain why this happened and how the company might be able to fix its finances. Plus: Former President Jimmy Carter talks about his new book on women’s rights around the world; and The New Yorker’s cartoon editor Bob Mankoff on his new book How About Never – Is Never Good For You?: My Life in Cartoons.

WNYC is funded by sponsors and member donations
