Daniel Yergin update from Raymond Duray.

I thought the "Commanding Heights" an excellent introduction to the concerns surrounding the world economy in 2003. I enjoyed watching it and look forward to seeing the episode I missed on a re run.

However, I did notice just a tad of bias on the program when presenting the Wests views of the free market in "Marx to Markets". I think the dramatized details of Magarete Thatcher, Ronald Regan, and derring doo of Soviet spies escaping to the West, showing the routes they ran etc slightly off subject. Like I was wondering if this was "spin" being applied as it were. I also thought the TV showing the guy with the full size portrait (was that J Sachs?) a bit much. Like it shows how much he thinks of himself. It focused too much on the portrait, and not enough one what the guy was saying imho.

An input from Raymond Duray on Daniel Yergin.

Not to say who is right, just add a little "balance" to the presentation -ggg-
