Week In The News: Charlottesville Aftermath, Trump Talk, Barcelona Terror

White nationalist violence in Charlottesville. President Trump blames “both sides.” CEOs defect. Our weekly news roundtable goes behind the headlines.

A stunned and struggling nation over Charlottesville this week. White supremacists in the streets. Armed, emboldened. Killing one and injuring many. And the president drawing moral equivalency with those protesting against them. The fallout still raining down. Confederate statues coming down. Moral authority, under question at the very top. And then, Barcelona. Many dead and wounded. Steve Bannon speaks. North Korea maneuvering. This hour On Point: Our weekly news roundtable goes behind the headlines. -- Tom Ashbrook
