RIght NOW on CNN (11a PST), you can check out a condensed version of the hit documentary I.O.U.S.A., about the growing national debt crisis that we all face. In these tough economic times, one way to stay on top is to stay informed, and I.O.U.S.A. is a great way to do just that.
The film has already been making the rounds at several film festivals, including Sundance, and was 'shortlisted' for Best Documentary at the Oscars. If you ever needed a reason to watch CNN, and we all know that sometimes you do, this may be it.
