Bump

Stumble-upon bump.

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

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)

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. 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.

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 @ [url]http://www.youtube.com/user/StosselClassroom[/URL]

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

 

[Kludge]

All the DVDs are now up on the Youtube channel, 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:

YouTube - Stereotypes -- Stossel In The Classroom

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



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"

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.

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"

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.

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.
