There was a program on PBS ABOUT sexuality in teens- did you see it? It took place in one town (Ga?) - on the surface a very conservative looking Bible belt kind of town- but the kids were going WILD. They interviewed everyone- seems to me I recall the producers were there because their had been this huge VD outbreak in town. Anyway, it was quite shocking. And depressing.

Christine, I will agree with you that once Frontline presents a piece, its mostly unbiased. But the problem is their selection of topics clearly has a bias, imo. That Mike Espy expose for example... why? Why investigate Mike Espy and not Newt Gingrich? For that matter have they investigated any conservatives at all? What is their basis for the claim in some of the teasers presenting the show "the most corrupt... " referring to the current administration - wouldn't the Reagan administration deserve at least a mention with regards to Iran/Contra? If they are going to do an old news piece like Waco, then why not revisit Iran/Contra then? I'm just saying if you look at the shows they've done, the selection of topics, it looks like someone with an agenda to me. I have a hard time believing the Whitewater topic really garnered much interest from the viewers compared to all the really big news - how about something on Russia, 3rd world nuclear arsenals, internet spying on purchasing patterns and personal info, drug companies pricing policies etc. There is a whole host of topics and whitewater and an Espy investigation in addition to all the other anti-Clinton shows just seems a bit much to me - jmo.
