I’m guest hosting Your Call’s Media Roundtable this morning at 10am PT. First, we’ll discuss the coordinated campaign by fossil fuel interests and their allies to sow disinformation about renewable energy. I’ll interview Rebecca Burns, an award-winning investigative reporter who has covered this story extensively.
Then, we’ll discuss the one-year anniversary of the civil war raging in Sudan. Joining me will be Sudanese-American journalist Isma’il Kushkush, who has reported on the conflict from the beginning.

What’s the latest on the deteriorating situation in Sudan? A fight between military factions has now turned into full-fledged urban warfare. We’ll be discussing on today’s Your Call’s Media Roundtable, when I’ll be guest hosting. Joining us will be Mat Nashed, journalist and analyst specializing in the Middle East and North Africa, with a focus on Sudan.
Then we discuss the new two-hour FRONTLINE special Clarence and Ginni Thomas: Politics, Power and the Supreme Court (preview above). The film examines Clarence and Ginni Thomases’ lives and their rise to power and influence.
It comes on the heels of a recent ProPublica investigation found that for over 20 years, Justice Thomas has accepted luxury trips virtually every year from billionaire Republican donor Harlan Crow without disclosing them, breaking long-standing norms for judges’ conduct. Joining us to discuss the film will be its director, Michael Kirk.

I’ll be guest hosting today’s Your Call’s Media Roundtable, when we’ll discuss the vicious power struggle between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces in Sudan. This escalation of violence has created a humanitarian crisis of immense proportion, turning the Khartoum into a war zone. Hundreds have died and tens of thousands are fleeing to neighboring countries. What is next for Sudan?
Joining us will be Mat Nashed, journalist and analyst specializing in the Middle East and North Africa, with a focus on Sudan.
Then later in the program we’ll cover America and the Taliban, a new Frontline series that traces America’s 20-year war in Afghanistan.
Drawing on decades of on-the-ground reporting and interviews with Taliban and U.S. officials, this epic three-part investigation traces how America’s 20-year investment in Afghanistan culminated in Taliban victory and examines the missteps and consequences.
Joining us will be:
- Marcela Gaviria, award winning journalist and filmmaker with Rain Media
- Martin Smith, award winning senior producer and foreign correspondent for FRONTLINE

On today’s edition of Your Call’s Media Roundtable, we’ll discuss the latest developments in Sudan.

Hundreds have been arrested.
Joining us to provide the latest will be:
Isma’il Kushkush, a freelance Sudanese American journalist.
Plus, we’ll cover the future of abortion rights in the United States, as the Supreme Court heard arguments on Wednesday over a Mississippi abortion law that could gut or overturn the 1973 Roe v. Wade landmark decision that legalized abortion nationwide.
