The Costa Report

Rebecca Costa

The Costa Report™ is a post-partisan talk show for thinking people – citizens who don’t care whether a solution comes from the left, right or center, so long as it works.

Each week The Costa Report goes where the big networks won’t.  And delivers what big talk show hosts don’t.  Costa invites the world’s top newsmakers and thought-leaders to discuss the challenges we now face for one full hour. No sound bites.  No talking points.  No scripting or editing.  From government debt, healthcare and terrorism, to election, education and energy reform, no topic is off-limits.
