Punditry and the mass media in general will often ask soft and leading questions about difficult and complicated issues. That is why sound clips, sensationalism and misinformation have replaced debate and discussion. In this clip, we discuss a recent example involving the Stop and Frisk law. This clip was part of MediaBytes: The Madness in the Message Radio Hour with Ron Placone. http://www.ronplacone.com
