Legal questions surrounding Obama's proposed NSA changes

President Obama just announced reforms to the NSA's surveillance program. Joining us to talk about these changes is Siobahn Gorman, intelligence correspondent for the Wall Street Journal.

Obama's reforms to the NSA surveillance program will likely intensify the legal questions surrounding this issue. For more, we're joined by David Cole, a constitutional law professor at Georgetown University. He's also the legal affairs correspondent for the Nation Magazine.
