Americans finally released from Iranian prison

Today's show begins with a huge break in a story we’ve been covering for years. A group of Americans imprisoned in Iran have just been released from Tehran’s notorious Evin Prison. This includes the longest held, 51-year-old Siamak Namazi, who has been languishing there for more than seven years. After being left behind in three previous prisoner swaps, Siamak went to extraordinary lengths on this show five months ago, making a public appeal for his release and that of his fellow Iranian-Americans Emad Shargi and Morad Tabaz. Christiane has a report on how it all unfolded, followed by interviews with Siamak's lawyer Jared Genser, CNN US Security Correspondent Kylie Atwood, and Washington Post writer Jason Rezaian, who spent 18 months in an Iranian prison.
