FRONTLINE ON PBS Oct 14th “The Choice 2008″

For as long as I can remember I have been a fan of FRONTLINE on PBS. Since 1983, FRONTLINE has served as American public television’s flagship public affairs series. Hailed upon its debut on PBS as “the last best hope for broadcast documentaries,” according to Newsday,  FRONTLINE’s stature over 25 seasons is reaffirmed each week through incisive documentaries covering the scope and complexity of the human experience, and this weeks episode “The Choice 2008″ is no exception.

Obama vs McCain; Red States vs Blue States: It is one of the most memorable presidential elections in decades. It is a race that pits the iconoclast John McCain against the newcomer Barack Obama; the heroic former prisoner of war against the first African American major party nominee. For two hours, the 20th anniversary broadcast of The Choice examines the rich personal and political biographies of these men and goes behind the headlines to discover how they arrived at this moment and what their very different candidacies say about America.

Watch The Choice 2008 on air and streaming free online beginning Tuesday, October 14, at 9 pm on PBS. Also, please check local listings for national television rebroadcasts on Sunday, October 26 and Monday, November 3, 2008.
