Show notes

HBO grew from a small cable channel into the best-in-class leader of the golden age of television. Bloomberg's Felix Gillette and John Koblin of the New York Times join to discuss their new book, It's Not TV: The Spectacular Rise, Revolution, And Future of HBO. Plus, Jamaica declares a state of emergency to combat murder, despite having a murder rate actually lower than in American communities. And a giddy night on MSNBC.

Produced by Joel Patterson and Corey Wara
