In recent weeks two major hurricanes have struck the United States, President Trump has continued to criticize journalists, and on Friday morning London suffered another attack when a homemade bomb went off on a commuter train. The news cycle has been uncharacteristically busy for the end of summer.

On this week's WUNC Politics Podcast, NPR Media Correspondent David Folkenflik joins Jeff Tiberii to discuss those topics, as well as social media, and The Wire.

 WUNC's Capitol Bureau Chief Jeff Tiberii talks with NPR Media Correspondent David Folkenflik about the week's news, social media, and The Wire.
