Indictment, Lawsuit Cloud Presidential Hopes of Ex-New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani

With the Iowa caucuses 50 days away, more questions about Giuliani’s past have emerged in recent days that could threaten his candidacy.

We speak to investigative reporter and Village Voice senior editor Wayne Barrett, author of two books on Giuliani.
