Cheney's Law - Frontline Documentary Online
The new season of Frontline kicked off last night with "Cheney's Law," an examination of how Cheney has championed greater (unlimited) executive power for over 3 decades, starting in the Nixon administration. Some interesting history, but it mostly covers the current Bush administration, particularly the role of David Addington, former legal counsel and now chief of staff to the Vice President, and John Yoo formerly of the Office of Legal Counsel (DoJ).
Not only can you view the whole documentary online, it's in Flash format. No embedding afaik, but I imagine someone out there will download the flv files and have them up on YT in no time.

MarineGunrockI tried to download it so I could compile them for an upload, but I can't seem to capture the flash. All the programs I tried tell me it's not valid.
MarineGunrockI'm not that skilled in coding and HTML and what not, but I found this in their HTML source. I'm pretty sure it's the embed.
<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="/wgbh/pages/frontline/video/flv/core.swf" style="" id="paplayer" name="paplayer" bgcolor="#222222" quality="high" flashvars="menu=false&pap_brand=FROL&pap_entitycode=0&pap_mode=1&pap_kgcode=2601" height="584" width="750">
Of course, the dimensions will have to be changed.
That's the first one. If a diamond wants to try that, I'll look for the others.
BoneyDIt's great they finally got a proper flash player for their new videos. I've been hanging for the new season.
That embed code didn't seem to work for me MG. I've found if you paste YouTube code into a blank text file (renaming to .html), it tends to do the embedding. But, I ofcourse know almost nothing about html
MarineGunrockIt didn't work for you because only a diamond member may embed from a host other than the ones that are listed as "approved"
