Abstract
Journalist John Stossel uses in-depth reports to explore movie ads, file sharing, zero-tolerance policies, and school violence. Stossell calls to task conservatives, liberals and moderates. In response to hypocrisy among wealthy environmentalists, dogmatic adherence to rules, and misleading messages from corporations, Josh Stossel exclaims, "give me a break!"
