Coming Up
Here's a quick look at what is coming up today from the Newseum:
In this week's Political Junkie, guest junkie Ron Elving, NPR's senior Washington editor, talks about each presidential candidate's take on energy policies, Hillary Clinton's campaign for Barack Obama, and new names in the veep-stakes. Later in the first hour, Elving will be joined by Michael Shober, a psychology professor at the New School for Social Research and Andy Kohut, director of the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press, for a discussion about polling, race and honesty. Have you ever not given a truthful answer to a survey question about race?
If you read the news on a regular basis, you've no doubt detected that corruption shows up in practically every sector of business, here and abroad. But what exactly causes corruption? In our second hour, author Ray Fisman and Claremont Graduate University president Robert Klitgaard will talk about the culture of corruption...and possible ways to change it. And at the end of the hour, two journalists discuss the challenges they face in reporting objectively on race and politics during this presidential campaign.
