Your Call: What defines Washington's political culture?

On the next Your Call, we’ll have a conversation with NY Times chief national correspondent Mark Leibovich about his new book, “ This Town: Two Parties and a Funeral—Plus, Plenty of Valet Parking!—in America’s Gilded Capital.” He writes: “The biggest shift in Washington over the last forty or so years has been the arrival of Big Money and politics as an industry.” Who are the influential players in Washington DC’s political ecosystem? And how can it be reformed? Join the conversation on the next Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
