Reporter Jessica Hopper talks with MSNBC's Chris Jansen live on national television. |
Since news first broke on talks of moving the Museum of the Confederacy to Lexington, Jessica Hopper has covered the story.
Museum president Waite Rawls' visit to Lexington on March 19 fueled a heated debate among local community members. The debate brought to light a racially divided community on the issue.
This discussion caught MSNBC producers' attention and Hopper was able to share her reporting on national television.
