i think friedman was wrong to put those out.'s wrong for any member of the administration that's in the chain of command of the president to be questioning leadership inside the military. that said, mr. friedman does have a considerable amount of credibility. he is a decorated war veteran. he was in the 101st airborne. he had two bronze stars. and i think the central point he was making, even if he was making it inappropriately, was that there are many reports, not just the michael hastings reports, many reports about the possible dysfunction -- we don't know the facts, of course -- but about the possible dysfunction inside bergdahl's unit that could have been a contributory factor into why he actually left. and the central point here is that we would all be a lot more intelligent and more informed on this if we would wait to get more facts about this before drawing conclusions. >> you're referring to a "rolling stone" article about hastings years ago. >> correct. >> how does this taliban prisoner exchange threaten americans in

friedman also maintained an incredible work ethic. he got up every morning at 2:00. this is a picture of him in his office. 6:00 ord work from 2:00- 7:00 in the morning. in the photograph, you can see there's a microphone where he did a daily radio show. then he went off to the newspaper office and was a full-time editor. his output was quite remarkable and his scholarship was deeply influential but it has taken some hits. his foundation is there. there is a lot of rubble because of the revisionist scholars. their critique of freeman is that he simply presented a sanitized lee. he was very selective in the evidence he used in his presentation of lee. ar one example, he spoke to group talking about leadership and he made an observation about what constitutes good generalship during the civil war. he said a great general must recognize between what was profitable from what was desirable. a soldier who cannot make that distinction, friedman declared, will never get anywhere. freeman was referring to confederate general beauregard. he had fantasies about joining with lee

but the whole theory of perfect market markets that adam smith and the melton friedman and all of these people who think the markets were perfect, totally ignored. so the idea was that markets where people have different information where some people know more than others, where markets work imperfectly are fundamentally different from this world that they had described where there was perfect information. you know, worlds with perfect information, there wouldn't be any discrimination. there wouldn't be any of the monopolies, you know, those kinds of perfections are not part of the world that we live in. and so what my research did is to help clarify, with other people's research, helped clarify why our economy doesn't work quite so smoothly as the advocates of free markets have claimed. why we had a crisis in 2008. you know, that's not the way market economies are supposed to operate. why it is, you know, the basic law of economics is you have supply and demand. law of supply and demand. there's not supposed to be unemployment. yet we have 20 million americans who would like a full-tim
