Spying on the Home Front 1x57

FRONTLINE addresses an issue of major consequence for all Americans: Is the Bush administration’s domestic war on terrorism jeopardizing our civil liberties?  Reporter Hedrick Smith examines the growing legal controversy over the National Security Agency’s domestic surveillance programs, including clashing viewpoints on whether the president has violated FISA and infringed on Constitutional protections.  The film tells the story of how new security threats, advances in communications technologies, and radical interpretations of presidential authority are threatening Americans’ privacy.
