Is America really broken beyond repair?

From Sunday Morning, 10:47 am on 29 May 2022

It's been yet another week to forget in the US, with the horrific shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas - which claimed the lives of 21 people - prompting the New York Times to ask whether the tragedy was confirmation that "America may be broken beyond repair".

Meanwhile, the Johnny Depp v Amber Heard case finally started drawing toward a close, with jury deliberations in the high-profile defamation battle beginning after six weeks of trial in Virginia.

Depp sued his ex-wife for $50m for an article she wrote in which she claims to be an abuse victim. Heard counter-sued for $100m.

Joining us to discuss these stories - along with the upcoming Senate hearings on the storming of the Capitol - is Sunday Morning's US correspondent Karen Kasler.
