First hour: Understanding ISIS in the broader context of the Muslim world
Second hour: Should we trust Yelp for restaurant reviews?
In our first hour, local Muslims have said they are concerned with the image of Islam. ISIS has appropriated the name of the religion; should news media refer to the terrorist organization in a different fashion? We've also heard local concern about the Rochester shop owner accused of recruiting for and providing support for ISIS. We'll have an interfaith discussion about the issue, and we'll look at a place where there is cross-cultural healing.
In our second hour, is Yelp reliable? Recently, a San Francisco restaurant encouraged customers to enter negative Yelp reviews. That's because the owner says he wants to show Yelp is a sham, and he's not alone in accusing the review site of extortion. But Yelp remains popular. We'll have a panel that can discuss the democratization of reviews, and whom to trust.
