Stossel in the Classroom 2007-2011! (http://www.youtube.com/user/StosselClassroom) (31 MORE videos!)

[JosephTheLibertarian]

umm ok. Why was he pessimistic about Ron Paul? Why didn't he air the interview on tv?

[Kludge]

umm ok. Why was he pessimistic about Ron Paul? Why didn't he air the interview on tv?

I don't believe it was his decision not to air it. It was an excellent interview.

[Fox McCloud]

John Stossel, since he actually does some real research.

Some of what Penn and Teller say is correct and true, but they tend to sensationalize the other side as crazy, stupid, or whackjob (regardless of what the other side says)...not only that, but IMHO they're overly vulgar with their presentations...but that's just me...overall, I view them more as entertainment than people to rely on.

Stossel is more tactful, has written a couple of books and was chosen by Ron Paul to be a member on his cabinet, IIRC....so I think he's WAY better than P&T.

[AJ Antimony]

Stossel did some interview with a college kid I think, and he said he fought to get the Ron Paul interview aired but ultimately his bosses I think said it wasn't something that 20/20 viewers would be interested in.

I wouldn't be surprised if they air pieces from it for different future Stossel segments.

[RSLudlum]

umm ok. Why was he pessimistic about Ron Paul? Why didn't he air the interview on tv?

Might not have been his decision?

I just finished his book "Myths, Lies, and Downright Stupidity" and is a pretty good, easily read primer for anybody that is interested in libertarian views on mainstream topics. He even goes into problems with the media. I don't think he would've done the entire interview if he didn't think it was going to air but then again maybe he wanted to do the interview but ABC's stipulation was that it would only be available on the net...unfortunately a compromise Stossel probably had to make? But then again I'm not Stossel, you'd have to ask him yourself. ;)

I'm still a little P/O`ed about P&T BS hit job on 9/11 truth...

Damn, "Is America Number One?" made me wanna move to Hong Kong.

[Czolgosz]

Both. Because I enjoy perspective from difference sources.

[JosephTheLibertarian]

John Stossel exposes liar Kevin Trudeau.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YN5ihrECJms

LOL. I almost bought his book until I did research on him. I research every infomercial I come across. The only legitimate infomercial that I have seen is that kitchen garden thingy. It appears to be legit.

[No1ButPaul08]

Kevin Trudeau is the worst of the worst. He's the only person ever banned from making infomericals by the FEC. (who I'm not, and I'm sure many others here, a fan of). At that point he switched from promoting products to writing books as books are protected by the first amendment. I'm not sure what this guy isn't an "expert" on. Since the 1990s he's told me he can

Make me a faster reader
Make my pain go away with his special tape.
Teach me how to make $10,000 a month with my mega memory
Teach me how to calculate complex math problems in my head quickly
Show me how to lose 30 pounds in 30 days
Show me Natural Cures "they" don't want me to know about
Show me Debt Cures "they" don't want me to know about

This is by no means a complete list. I'm sure there are other scams he has tried that I'm forgetting or haven't heard of

As Stossel points out, Trudeau slams drug companies and the FDA and would normally be liked by people like him and myself. However, he's just a scam artist and is playing off people's hatred of the drug industry. His cures are worthless

How does he come up with stuff? Did he just copy them from sources in the library? And how do those scam artists create their own vitamins? Who is making it for them? I wonder.

[No1ButPaul08]

I would imagine he uses a variety of "sources." I'm sure some of it he just makes up. It's really how he sells it that makes it such a scam. He really knows how to make a believer out of people. Here are some comments from a corresponding Stossel article



I believe Mr.Trudeau is, if not, 150% correct.

I believe that Kevin Trudeau is a very wise and strong man! I believe in what he is saying, it makes sense!

It's articles like these that are the very reason I believe in Kevin Trudeau.

Of course, mosts of his cultists use straw man arguments that slam Kevin's detractors for getting on him for writing a book about living a healthy lifestyle. Nevermind the fact they are questioning his cures not his writing of a book about a healthy lifestyle.

Here's a comment on his "Debt Cures"
Truth be told, most of the information [in the book]is readily available in personal finance columns you can find online or in books that are readily available in your local library.

Are you talking about Don Lapre's "The Greatest Vitamin in the World?" I'm not sure who makes these vitamins, but Don Lapre is also a scam artist who could be known as Kevin Trudeau Jr.
Here's a youtube of a Don Lapre spoof.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nns3He0qYJs

Kevin Trudeau reminds me of Steve Parent
Edit: This should probably say Steve Parent reminds me of Kevin Trudeau, as I'm sure Steve goes to sleep at night dreaming of reaching the levels of "success" that Kevin has "achieved"

retarded poll lol

though that is a treasure of stossel stuff, so worth viewing!

[Mahkato]

Bump!

[ClayTrainor]

I like both but i gave my vote to Stossel. Penn annoys me sometimes, he's too arrogant and i dont always agree with them, but i almost always do.

That being said... Stossel for the win.

[Knightskye]

Pretty creepy. They talk about terrorism, about eight months before 9/11.

[kojirodensetsu]

Stossel is better, but P&T are cool too. :cool:

Idunno if this will be appreciated or not, but Penn wrote an inspirational (and serious) essay on Atheism.

[Xenophage]

Penn and Teller are fucking amazing. I'm going to see them in Vegas in a month.

John Stossel is awesome too, but Penn and Teller are hilarious and probably more effective at reaching out to my generation ;)

[Xenophage]

Oh, and 9/11 Truth IS bullshit.

[BillyDkid]

I don't believe it was his decision not to air it. It was an excellent interview.
Yes, well, maybe, but he could have put his foot down and stood up against that kind of censorship. You know as well as I do that the decision not to air Ron Paul was completely political and a deliberate choice to prevent people from hearing what Ron Paul had to say.

Lol, he doesn't have rights to the show. He can't do a damn thing if the owners don't want to air it.

[Kludge]

Bump for 100 votes?

[rpfan2008]

101 Stossel

no idea who the other guys are.

[nayjevin]

I link to both at my site, but in penn & teller's case I list caveats:

John Stossel (http://abcnews.go.com/2020/stossel) puts liberty concepts into simple terms.

Penn and Teller (http://www.sho.com/site/ptbs/home.do) are generally libertarian, sometimes outright wrong, but they sure are funny and have alot of great points.

Stossel is always right, no matter what, as is Kludge's mustache portal.

[Kludge]

Ech, the list looks very odd now.... I'll switch them over to tinyURLs.

[MRoCkEd]

Johnny Stossel has another special Friday..

..It's about Glenn Beck.

[Kludge]

Bump

[Kludge]

Stumble-upon bump.

[Kludge]

I'm changing my vote upon learning of the "Jill-Jet".

[roho76]

I bet Teller is the brains behind "Penn and Teller". The silent ones are the smart ones (Silent Bob, Karl Rove). How many interviews did you here from Rove while he was at the WH? It freaked me out to hear his voice on FOX after all these years now the guy wont shut up.

[Slutter McGee]

In one of the more recent Bullshit shows on taxation they refered to Dr. Paul as Gandalf five or six times while making him look like one of the only sane people in Washington. Say what you will about reason, sensationalism can be a lot of fun.

Don't sleep: watch Stossel.

(Edit: It appears P&T episodes are no longer streamed from the website I linked above -- and.... now it does, again)

[Kludge]

Bump. Added War On Drugs from a post by RevolutionSD & added a couple more to the Misc. section, including whole episode in which Schultz smacked Stossel. I'll get around to further completing the list, later, it's just a hassle converting all the links so they don't embed. Eventually, I'd like to rip & upload the Stossel in the Classroom videos from DVD. If you aren't familiar, I was pimping it earlier here (http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showpost.php?p=2175771&postcount=1). They have changed the website format considerably and now have a 2010 edition of the DVD I haven't watched. It's my understanding that Stossel funds this project (almost?) entirely himself along with help from Andrea Rich & his (former?) producer Kristina Kendall, so please be considerate. If you keep contact with any teachers who might be interested, please pass the info along.

[Kludge]

The slow process of ripping the DVDs and uploading them on Youtube has begun (I'll back it up on a personal server later in case Google shuts it down for copyright infringement).

Progress can be found @ http://www.youtube.com/user/StosselClassroom (http://www.youtube.com/user/StosselClassroom)

Slow upload speed on my side is causing problems. :s

[Kludge]

:D All the DVDs are now up on the Youtube channel (http://www.youtube.com/user/StosselClassroom/), less the 2010 edition because I haven't received it, yet.

I've been wanting to post this one a few times in different threads, but I couldn't find the video:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/yblog_thelookout/20110624/ts_yblog_thelookout/king-of-infomercials-arrested-on-fraud-charges-after-skipping-court

The "King of Infomercials" may have pitched his last product.

U.S. Marshals arrested Don Lapre last night in Tempe, Ariz., after he failed to appear in court on fraud charges linked to his vitamin business.

Earlier this month, Lapre, of Phoenix, was indicted by a federal grand jury, which charged that his business, Greatest Vitamin in the World, signed up 226,794 people and promised them money for selling vitamins and recruiting others to the business. In the end, prosecutors say, investors and customers spent nearly $51.8 million, but received just $6.4 million in commissions. Between 2004 and 2007, they say, Lapre himself took in at least $2.2 million from the business.

The self-proclaimed infomercial king was charged with 41 counts of conspiracy, mail fraud, wire fraud, promotional money laundering and transactional money laundering. He has acknowledged that he "did not have the perfect company," but denied breaking the law.

[Kludge]

Bump. 2012 should be released in a couple months.

Watched "Stossel" for the first time in a long while last night. How is it possible for the show to still be so awkward? I honestly think he needs the guidance he had over at ABC. Idunno if he dumped his producer Kristina Kendall while switching over or what, but the show still doesn't work.

Added Stossel in the Classroom YT link in the OP.

SitC '12 on its way, to be uploaded around the end of the month, hopefully.
