“Your Voice, Your Vote,” a special presentation on the 2018 midterm elections hosted by Boyd Matheson, Opinion Editor at Deseret News. It's the day after record-breaking midterm elections and Doug Wilks, editor of the Deseret News, joins to discuss the results, and give a peek into what the newsroom is like. Also, breaking news interrupts the show as Jeff Sessions resigns as attorney general at Trump's request.

President Donald Trump and many in the national media continue their rocky relationship. Filled with contempt, their rhetoric may be good for ratings on cable tv and may help the president gin up his base for re-election.

Such contempt also allows both ends of the political spectrum to raise billions of dollars in campaign cash, but that money won't buy us a better nation. The proper role of the press, the presidency and the First Amendment. Guest: Doug Wilks Editor of Deseret News
