Countering Terrorism

In this episode from the Straight Up archive, journalists Aviva Stahl and Nida Khan join host Jarrett Murphy from City Limits to discuss terrorist attacks on foreign soil, Islamophobia here at home, the Islamic State, and the war on terror. This conversation was recorded in December, 2015, but how events in other countries play into our national politics couldn't be more relevant than it is right now. How does terrorism abroad affect the counter-terrorism efforts made by the U.S.? And how has media coverage of these events changed in the past 12 months? Tune in and find out. •••• The Straight Up Podcast is produced by Megan Donis, Sriyanka Ray, and Sachar Mathias; and is recorded by Steve deSeve, on-location, at Bedford Hall in Brooklyn.
