Crossfire is back! by: Alliciyia George

So for those of you who haven't heard, Crossfire is back! I happened to catch an episode the other day, and of course the topic was the government shut down. I never saw the original Crossfire that we talked about in class, but this one seems very different. The hosts of the show consisted of one Democrat and one Republican- both women, and they had two guests come - again one Democrat and one Republican. Each person was able to make his opinion known as well as a case for that opinion. Disagreements were handled quite civilly and in fact all of the people seemed to agree with each other on majority of the issues and possible solutions at least partially.
