The Morning Show - 11/18/08

We mark a truly unhappy anniversary today--the 30th anniversary of the Jonestown incident which led to the deaths of more than 900 of his followers. We speak with journalist Jim Reiterman, who was seriously injured by the rain of gunfire which killed U.S. Congressman Leo Ryan and several other reporters who had traveled to Guyana to investigate the Jonestown settlement at the urging of concerned relatives. Reiterman's definitive book about the tragedy, "Raven: The Untold Story of the Rev. Jim Jones and His People" has just been re-released in paperback.
