This Weeks’s Agenda: Super Committee, Euro Crisis, Thanksgiving

The Takeaway

The week starts out on an ominous note as the Congressional “super committee” charged with reducing the national debt announces that they will not reach a deal. What went wrong during their negotiations, and where do we go from here? How will markets react?  Also, the Euro crisis rages on as another government falls in Spain with the election of a new Conservative party. Finally, another GOP debate, the start of the holiday shopping season, and Thanksgiving traditions from Takeaway guests. WNYC and Takeaway business editor Charlie Herman  joins the program along with Mediate  politics and television editor Nando di Fino.
