For five seasons, The Wire brought the poorly understood world of the inner city into living rooms across the country. In this edition of the Journal, Bill Moyers is joined by the creator of that critically acclaimed drama series, David Simon—an award-winning screenwriter who is also a former police reporter at The Baltimore Sun and the author of Homicide: A Year on the Killing Streets. Together they talk about urban crime and politics, the art and craft of storytelling, and the uncertain future of journalism. Broadcast date: April 17, 2009. (57 minutes)
