I prefer if Murphy responded in Mises Daily or on his blog so I could more closely see the graphs and get through the material more quickly than in about 10 minutes.

I laughed out loud just from seeing the titles of the videos and the freeze frames. Reich standing there in front of his board with his HD resolution and his sidebar graphics: "The Truth About the Economy". Oooo sounds impressive. Scroll a bit down...Murphy's dome shining as he holds up a chart: "The Truth About Robert Reich". lol classic.

I'm actually glad he did it. It's a more popular format, and notice how easily it was posted in direct response to the Reich nonsense. (Sure MoveOn.org disables comments (Gee I wonder why), but it can still be sent around and viewed just as easily as the Reich video. I think a lot more people are inclined to view a video where someone explains something to them as opposed to read an article plastered with graphs (and that would no doubt have been a decent length)).
