Bad Money - Reckless Finance, Failed Politics And The Global Crisis Of American Capitalism.

[Dover]

An excellent program on Bill Moyers about the big picture in the ongoing economic crisis.
First he interviews Gretchen Morgensen & Floyd Norris from the NYTimes.

And then a great interview with Kevin Phillips, author of, Bad Money - Reckless Finance, Failed Politics And The Global Crisis Of American Capitalism.

Transcript:
