Did anyone in the US watch PBS last night, specifically the Frontline special on the Wall Street meltdown 3+ years ago? Probably one of the most comprehensive, investigative journalism pieces I've seen on the issue. It was only part 1 last night, two hours long. Part 2 will be next week.

You can watch in full online here in case you are interested.

Frontline: Money, Power and Wall Street

It is really a must see.

I will have to watch that, so no bias?

Frontline has been accused of bias before but which political/documentary show hasn't?

There isn't a better investigative show out there looking at all facts, sides and those interpretations of facts with respect to what-ever issue, subject happens to be on focus. As far as the Cato Institute...they are a rather very large special interest founded by the Koch brothers.
