  • BUSINESS TAKEOUT: The Bank Bailout might have backfired in a big way, according to the special inspector for the Troubled Asset Relief Program. New York Times reporter Louise Story tells us why.
  • SPORTS TAKEOUT: Takewaway sports correspondent Ibrahim Abdul-Matin gets personal as he profiles some of the players in this year's Super Bowl.
  • MEDICAL TAKEOUT: Scientists at the University of Michigan discovered a trend that could exclude large swaths of society from the benefits of stem cell research. They found a huge deficit in the stem cell lines of African Americans. We ask Sean Morrison, director of the University's Center for Stem Cell Biology.

Guests:

Ibrahim Abdul-Matin and Sean Morrison
