Topic: The Great Gatsby

The Mat-Su School District in Alaska voted to remove several seminal novels from its high school curriculum, including "Catch-22," "The Great Gatsby," and "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings." The board cited concerns over "controversial" content, though the move faced significant backlash from students and parents. The hosts criticize the decision as an example of over-socialization and the erosion of classical education.

John Dvorak critiques the current state of "Good Morning America," noting it has replaced news with pure entertainment promotion for Disney-owned properties. The segment highlights promotional coverage for "Men in Black 3" and "The Great Gatsby." The hosts argue this creates a "circle of bullcrap" designed to distract the public.
