A new report shows that U.S. soldiers tampered with the scene of the deaths of three women, including digging bullets out of the bodies, to cover up their involvement. Are the new procedures for the war under General McChrystal really minimizing civilian casualties, as they are supposed to?
Joining us to discuss this story and more in today’s news is Rory O’Connor, author of Shock Jocks: Hate Speech and Talk Radio. He’s also on the board of a new organization, Not In Our Town, designed to fight back against hate groups.
