How The Housing Crisis Spread, And What Happens Now
From high mortgage rates to shortages that have spread coast to coast, New York Times reporter Emily Badger explains the roots -- and consequences of our country's broken housing system.
Guest Host: Steve Roberts
When longtime Washington Post editorial page editor and Newsweek columnist Meg Greenfield died in 1999, friends and colleagues learned that she’d left behind an almost-completed book detailing her observations of the nation’s capital. Several of those friends and colleagues come together to remember Meg Greenfield and to present her now-published final work, Washington, published by Public Affairs.
Guests
- Michael Beschloss Historian and literary executor of Meg Greenfield's estate
- Kate Lehrer Author, most recently of "Confessions of a Bigamist."
- Don Graham Chairman of The Washington Post
