    Ken Burn's new documentary 'The Central Park Five'

    NATO today joined the US in warning Syria that the use of chemical weapons against its people would be “completely unacceptable.” We’ll update signs of a new, military offensive and debate the pros and cons of increased US intervention.  Also, we re-visit a brutal crime via "The Central Park Five," and we'll talk about the latest offers w/ House Speaker Boehner regarding the Fiscal Cliff.
