Sneak peek at this Sunday's show
By Elizabeth Cherneff, CNN
When three once-missing Cleveland women returned to their families after being held captive for nearly a decade, the story captivated viewers across the country. It’s a story on the minds of families everywhere, and we’ll discuss the coverage this week on Reliable Sources.
Joining us on the show, popular culture commentator Lola Ogunnaike, Paul Farhi of the Washington Post and Jim Warren of The New York Daily News will discuss how journalists attempted to make sense of the story as the horrifying details emerged. We’ll also get our panelists’ take on how the story competed for attention with the dramatic conclusion in the Jodi Arias murder trial.
We’ll talk to Pulitzer Prize winning columnist Connie Schultz live from Cleveland about the media’s initial race to cover the emotional reunions as Amanda Berry, Michelle Knight and Gina DeJesus were freed & reunited with their families.
And finally, Bloomberg View columnist Margaret Carlson, The Hill’s Bob Cusack, and the National Review’s Jim Geraghty join our political panel this week. They’ll talk to Howard about this week’s congressional hearings on the fatal Benghazi attack, Mark Sanford’s political victory and why Chris Christie’s weight is once again making headlines this week.
Tune in Sunday morning, 11am ET.

Useful info. Lucky me I discovered your website by chance, and I'm surprised why this twist of fate didn't came about earlier! I bookmarked it.
Suddenly this past week the mainstream media is interested in the Benghazi hearings? And then Margaret Carlson blames their lack of interest on the 'right wing media's interest in it'. I would have asked her if she really believes that if the Fox News and Weekly Standard had not kept a spot light on it, would the 12 times revised talking points have ever come to light? And then this last week, ABC gets all the credit. Because, of course, the (left leaning) mainstream media doesn't want to give the Weekly Standard any credit at all.
Howard. Im surprised you still have a job after last week. What little credibility you had left is gone. Seems your not smart enough to be embarrassed. But on to Benghazi and the IRS. After a brief mention crickets. On to the big story about Christies surgery. .
Howard, how about Benghazi? You know, the first US Ambassador, personal representative of the US President, assassinated along with 3 other US diplomats and nobody has taken responsibility? Well.
