“Let’s create new talk shows and blogs in which liberals and conservatives interrogate one another’s views...it
would be a useful antidote to the current cable and blog ghettoes, where you can go years without hearing the
other side make its case.” — “Washington is Broken,” Time Magazine cover, March 1, 2010
Both Sides Now is a views-on-the-news weekend radio show that exchanges ideas, not insults. It covers both sides so listeners decide for themselves. You'll hear from Arianna Huffington, CEO of the AOL-Huffington Post Media Group, and Mary Matalin, CNN contributor and former top aide in the Bush-Cheney White House. Sitting in for Arianna occasionally will be Ron Reagan and Eliot Spitzer. Hosted by Mark Green.

As half of Obama's term ends, three big questions dominate this week's show (listen below): if tax rates are at their lowest in 50 years and the concentration of income & wealth at their highest, how can more income and inheritance tax cuts be justified? Should the Senate in January reject automatic filibusters as the new normal? Is Palin a celebrity or a candidate?
