To: Choose Ye This Day

When was the last time PBS aired this! I'd bet at least 20 years ago. Capitalism is not warmly received on PBS.

Surprisingly, they also allowed Friedman to do an update of the whole series in 1990--16 years ago.

Of course, they shortened the series to only 5 episodes.

IIRC Free to Choose was produced by a PBS station in Erie Pennsylvania. I do not know how extensively the series was shown nationally. I saw it on the Buffalo NY outlet.

One of the discussion segments in a later program introduced me to Thomas Sowell, for which I continue to be very grateful.
