[QUOTE]Originally posted by Siegfried: [QB] First of Two: I know all about some of the parents being pressured by environmental groups to rescind their consent to have the interview with their children. I have no doubt that the environmental groups used all sorts of heavy tactics to do so as Stossel has long reported on environmental issues that contradict today's accepted standard pattern of thought. However, for such a quick about-face, I cannot help but wonder if a few of the parents did have a bit of apprehension about the interview. I showed some reluctance to accepting all of it at face value for that reason plus the fact that he was forced to apologize for a report he did last year where he cited data from an experiment that was never done. I also have a bit of bias against him because some of his reports of the past have struck me as being very whiney and not containing a good deal of substance. I did not get to see all of the news report, but the parts of the report that I did watch I do agree were well done. Quite a few of the issues that he raised I agree with. Just as one example, the teaching of environmental studies in elementary school has moved towards being more propagandic than educational. I know this first hand because in my day (about 10 to 12 years ago), nuclear power was considered a good and viable alternate source of energy. Nowadays, it's view with almost the same villany that fossil fuels have been branded with. [/QB][/QUOTE]
