Truthdig Editor-in-Chief Robert Scheer and the “Left, Right & Center” crew discuss the horrific school shooting in Connecticut, U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice’s withdrawal from consideration for the top slot in the State Department, Michigan’s new status as a right-to-work state and more.

The panelists declare a moratorium on fiscal cliff talk until the real last minute negotiations take place in the final hours of 2012 and follow the trial of Pfc. Bradley Manning, who has been accused of giving classified military and diplomatic documents to WikiLeaks.

Joining Scheer and host Matt Miller is Newsweek contributing editor David Frum.
