The new FRONTLINE documentary, Trafficked in America, tells the inside story of Guatemalan teens forced to work against their will on an egg farm in Ohio. On the next Your Call’s weekly media roundtable, we’ll discuss coverage of labor trafficking in the US.
We’ll also talk about the deadly protests in Gaza. On Monday, Israeli military forces shot and killed 59 Palestinians and injured more than 2,700, including 12 journalists and 17 paramedics.
