It's the end of another week and time for the Friday Flashback, Take Two's look at the week in news. This morning we're joined in-studio by Los Angeles Times columnist James Rainey, and we welcome back Jamelle Bouie of The Daily Beast.

Let's talk first about the news out of Arizona, where Republican Governor Jan Brewer vetoed a bill which would have allowed businesses to refuse service to homosexuals on religious grounds.

And interestingly, the NFL and MLB threw around a lot of weight in this decision. How so and what do you make of those moves?

The bill seemed to rattle a lot of politicians in the Republican party who consider themselves fiscally conservative and are wary of legislating polarizing social issues. How do you think these political stances are going to play out in the midterm elections?

We also had the news out of Texas where a judge struck down the state's ban on gay marriage and in Kentucky, where a federal judge signed an order directing the state to recognize gay marriages performed in other states even though Kentucky does not allow them. What's left at this point? Where does this leave the movement legislating same-sex marriage?

This week President Obama announced a new initiative—My Brothers Keeper—aimed at helping young men of color succeed. We just heard about how it will be rolled out here in L.A., but President Obama has been criticized for not prioritizing issues within the African American community enough in the past, so how do you think this will fit into his legacy? Is it too little too late? How will his critics receive it?

On to another big story this week: The Guardian published another leak from Edward Snowden, this time about the UK's surveillance agency—the GCHQ—which has intercepted millions of Yahoo webcam images, and many of them scantily clad ones.

And to another perhaps equally unsurprising story—but a big one here in California—Governor Jerry Brown has officially announced he's running for reelection. He made the announcement on Twitter, nonchalantly, slid in just a cool week before the deadline. What can we expect this race to look like?

The FDA this week proposed a facelift for the nutrition label. The new ones have more realistic serving sizes and make the calories MUCH larger. And, the Oscars are this Sunday. Who are you rooting for?
