Sesame Street and Autism

The conversation following the introduction of an autistic character on Sesame Street

Following the introduction of an autistic character on Sesame Street we hear from parents whose children have the condition. Plus, we'll bring you the conversation in the US where intelligence chiefs are testifying to Congress about allegations that Russia interfered in last year's presidential election. And, after a 麻豆社 poll looks into doping in amateur sport, we'll talk to people who have taken performance enhancing drugs.
