How should the media cover Donald Trump; then, his finances and business ethics
Listen 00:48:44Guests: Dylan Byers and David Cay Johnston

A new Washington Post-ABC News poll found that he’s leading the GOP field among Republican voters with the widest margin yet. But the media faces a conundrum. What’s the most responsible way to report on his candidacy? Politico media reporter DYLAN BYERS has been covering that angle of Trump news. Then, Pulitzer-prize winning journalist DAVID CAY JOHNSTON has been investigating Donald Trump’s finances for nearly 30 years. He joins us to talk about Trump’s wealth and what government documents say about his ethics and business dealings.
