Keeping you informed and engaged. Now more than ever. This is Seculo.

We want to hear from you. Share and post your comments. Recall 1-800-684-3-110.

0:26.0

And now your host, Logan Secula.

0:26.9

Welcome to Secula.

0:28.4

We have a packed show today.

0:30.3

We are all just getting back from Christmas, obviously.

0:32.6

So, hopefully, you know, a late Merry Christmas to all of you.

0:36.8

As we start to wrap up, the end of the year with just a couple days left.

0:37.6

We're going to keep talking about some new initiatives we have here at the ACLJ, including a very special way you

0:42.7

can get involved right now. It is our year and Freedom Drive. And for the rest of the year,

0:46.6

which is only again, a couple of days. It's December 29th. All donations, we were able to talk

0:51.7

and make it happen. All donations will be tripled. That's right. It's a triple match right now. Your donations are tripled through the end of the year. So whatever donation you make, we will be able to get a double match on that. So tripled the donations, which is wild. So be a part of it right now at ACLJ.org. Of course, we want to talk about some of the breaking news that happened.

1:55.9

This is Alan Dershowitz who, again, this is going to be interesting one. You've got Alan Dershowitz suing

2:00.0

CNN with the ACLJ involved because we believe in a bigger scale of this that the issue needs to finally be addressed. You had one court and say, yes, you are right. And then you had one court that flipped it and said, no, this shouldn't happen. And now it's taking it to Supreme Court in the United States. I'd love to hear what you think about this.

2:19.1

Phone lines are open at 1-800-684-31-10, and Will can give you a bit more of a breakdown of what we're talking about here. That's right. So what this case will go to, and it's captioned Dershowitz versus the cable news network and Corporated, so CNN right there in the caption,
