PBS Frontline

Submitted by Mike McGregor on August 14, 2008 - 11:05am.

PBS Frontline has been producing documentries for over 20 years for The PBS (the american Public Brodcasting Service).

Recently many of these documentries have focused on the war in Iraq. Some episodes look at the realities or on the ground and it's affects on solders, other episodes look at the political aspects of the war and the push from the White House for the invasion.

Frontline also lookes at many social issues, such as Prisions in America, religion in society, the meth epidemic, even Wal-mart's effects on communities.

Some of my favorite episodes are 'The New Asylum' dealing with mental health and the justice system, 'The Persuaders' which looks at the art and science behind advertising and 'A Company of Soldiers' which follows a small American unit and it's soldiers during the occupation of Iraq in 2004.
