20/20 is an American television newsmagazine that has been broadcast on ABC since June 6, 1978. Created by ABC News executive Roone Arledge, the show was designed similarly to CBS's 60 Minutes but focuses more on human interest stories than international and political subjects. The program's name derives from the "20/20" measurement of visual acuity. The hour-long program has been a staple on Friday evenings for much of the time since it moved to that timeslot from Thursdays in September 1987, though special editions of the program occasionally air on other nights.
Is America Number 1? And if so, number 1 in what? Government? Economy? Culture? What makes a country prosperous? Democracy? The U.S. and India both have democracy, but only one is prosperous. Natural resources? Hong Kong and the U.S. are both prosperous, but only one is rich in natural resources. John Stossel argues that what makes a country prosperous is rule of law and economic freedom.
Should a business be able to pay pregnant women less? Why should taxpayers foot the bill for search and rescue operations for people who take foolish risks? If Miss California can enhance her body with implants, why can't an athlete enhance his body with steroids? Isn't it about time for America to give less money to the elderly? John Stossel takes a look at taboo subjects we can't talk about in America.
Can going out in the cold give you a cold? Is life getting worse? Can money buy happiness? You may be among the many who would answer yes to these questions. You'd be wrong. There are a lot of popularly held beliefs out there that simply aren't true. Yet the media tend to report on many of them as though they were hard facts.
