HAITI TAKEOUT: We reunited Mallery Thurlow, founder and director of Haiti Foundation Against Poverty, in Grand Rapids, Mich., with her boyfriend in Haiti, France Neptune, live on The Takeaway yesterday. We speak with her to see if she's had any contact with him since yesterday, and about a baby close to her who died in the earthquake.
FINANCE TAKEOUT: President Obama is expected to announce a tax on big banks that will help the government collect up to $120 billion that was lost during the financial crisis. The Takeaway talks with New York Times finance reporter Louise Story about the tax.
SPORTS TAKEOUT: Supreme Court justices were discussing football today, and the main issue in contention was...football jerseys. Takeaway Sports contributor Ibrahim Abdul-Matin joins us to talk about how this case could have a broader effect on how the NFL does business.
