welcome back to reliable sources. i m brian stelter. let s measure coverage of afghanistan. many are clutching onto hope. we continue to see evacuations from the country, although it has really slowed down in the past couple of days since the bombing at the airport. this is a complicated, consequential international story, but all of it is covered through a political lens. i want to ask several guests if the media has been missing the mark in coverage of the withdrawal and in the events of afghanistan. is the story being too simplified? let s bring back azrat khan, she s back with me. james fallows and eric boehlert.
