Press Play with Madeleine Brand
Mammograms, Income Divide & Mexican Money in American Politics
A new study suggests breast cancer screenings may be ineffective, we examine the income gap in our Fault Lines series, and foreign cash enters U.S. politics.
By Madeleine Brand • • 35m ListenA new study about breast cancer screenings is adding more fire to the mammogram debate. We discuss the history of early screenings and how women are supposed to interpret this latest information. Plus, we continue our Fault Lines series that looks at the income divide and everything in between; Madeleine visits a place in downtown L.A. where you can literally see the handoff from low-income to high-income residents. And we hear about a Mexican businessman accused of illegally influencing politics in San Diego. Is this what President Obama warned us about after the Citizens United decision?
