The financial role of a party’s political chair

The influence a party's chair has over candidate fundraising, media censorship in China, and a student-run town.

On today’s show, we’ll talk about the resignation of Debbie Wasserman Schultz, the chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee, and the broader question of how a political chair can affect fundraising efforts; China’s decision to shut down several online news operations; and a North Texas town run entirely by students.
