The Ultimate Resource to air on PBS

I received this in the inbox this week. If your PBS channel is carrying the show I highly recommend it. I've seen it and it's great.

Hello. Thank you again for giving us coverage on the Milton Friedman biography which aired on PBS in January. We alerted you earlier in the year to our new program The Ultimate Resource. I am pleased to announce the program is scheduled to broadcast on PBS starting November 2, 2007 at 8PM EST. A list of broadcasting stations is available here: http://www.freetochoosemedia.net/production/ultimate_resource/press/ur_station_listings.pdf

The program was filmed on location world-wide. In Ghana, we document parents striving to choose the best schools for their children. Knowing school choice is a topic of much interest, we thought you might want to alert your readers to this program. Below, you’ll find links to the segment on school choice, as well as other segment previews.

The program features some of today’s most leading experts. In Bangladesh, we interview 2006 Nobel Peace Prize winner, Muhammad Yunus. In Peru, we speak to economist Hernando de Soto. James Tooley, Professor of Education Policy, is featured in the segment on school choice. And scholar Johan Norberg meets us in Estonia to discuss the country’s huge leap in economic grown since the fall of the Soviet Union.


We would appreciate you alerting your readers to the PBS broadcast of The Ultimate Resource. Please let me know if I can provide additional information or a DVD screener.

Kind regards,

The statesman who should attempt to direct private people in what manner they ought to employ their capitals would not only load himself with a most unnecessary attention, but assume an authority which could safely be trusted, not only to no single person, but to no council or senate whatever, and which would nowhere be so dangerous as in the hands of a man who had folly and presumption enough to fancy himself fit to exercise it. -Adam Smith
