This week on CounterSpin: the domestic debate over Iraq is dominating
the headlines, usually characterized as a "showdown" between Congress
and the White House over Democratic calls to withdraw U.S. troops.
The stalemate leaves many reporters asking the question, "What's
next?" But in the midst of the partisan scrum on Capitol Hill, what's
actually happening in Iraq? Freelance journalist David Enders will
join us to share his thoughts.
Also this week: the genocide by Turks against Armenians in 1915 is
still making news. A dispute erupted recently at the Los Angeles
Times when managing editor Douglas Frantz spiked a report by veteran
Times reporter Mark Arax. Claiming Arax had a conflict of interest,
Frantz killed the Armenian American journalist's report about pending
congressional legislation that officially designate the 1915 massacres
of Armenians as "genocide." Harut Sassounian, the publisher of the
California Courier, an Armenian American newspaper on the West Coast,
will join us with the latest on that.
