Isaacson on Kissinger

Listen Later

Henry Kissinger, one of the most famous American Secretaries of State, died on Wednesday at age 100. From his pivotal role in the Vietnam War, to holding secret diplomatic talks with communist China, Kissinger wielded great diplomatic power. But he was reviled by many for his role in the bombing of Cambodia and the rise of repressive regimes in Latin America. Historian and journalist Walter Isaacson knows Henry Kissinger’s life story inside and out, writing what some call “the definitive biography”, he joins Bianna to reflect on Kissinger’s life. 

Also on today's show: PBS host Margaret Hoover & CNN anchor John Avlon; Al Jazeera correspondent Youmna ElSayed
