FRONTLINE: Bigger Than Enron by PBS (DIRECT)

Description

Enron's meteoric rise and collapse revealed a watchdog system that failed. But in the 1990s, more than 400 corporations dramatically restated their value after accounting lapses, failures, or fraud. FRONTLINE examines an oversight system gone soft in interviews with SEC officials, corporate executives, members of Congress, and investor advocates, blaming market deregulation and conflicts of interest for eroded controls against investment fraud.
