succeed without talent but but talent without a mastery of the craft is paralyzed if you have great talent great imagination but you don't really understand story then what will you do you copy unconsciously you imitate other writers that you know because you're not free to to take the elements of story and play with them and improvise and experiment and do brilliant things with them and so what i try to teach people is that how to understand these elements their relationships and then give you the freedom to do with them as you will because if you don't have. that understanding and you haven't mastered these pieces then then you will be a slave to to every cliche that comes along but the movies like movies like are the times of one extreme when when when sixty really extremely expensive and really really great show something to see the other extreme is what they sometimes called the the art house movies and what like the low budget movies where the self-expression of the director is the really what matters nothing else matters photography the story what's your attitude to these and there

you have an innate mastery of technology. you have an ability to build and foster connections that no generation before you has ever posse possessed. people bemoan a generation who grew up living life in front of screens, always connected to something or someone. those people are wrong. they're absolutely wrong. the fact is that we're all connected now is a blessing, not a curse. and we can solve many problems in the world as a result of this. it's not only an advantage that you have. it's a responsibility that you carry. i mean, today there are 54 wars and conflicts raging around the world, 1.5 billion people live on less than a dollar a day. hundreds of millions of children go to bed hungry tonight. we need to fix that. nearly half the world's people don't live under democratic governments and rights we all enjoy are a rarity, not a norm. i'm proud to be an american. and when it comes to the internet, we think everyone is online. but only 1 billion people have smartphones and only 2 billion have access to the web. for most

imbalances the responsibility in europe's what's time to the bureaucrats it is on something as stupid as a mastery treaty and the banks went along in finance this stupid and across like that until it fell right up and now of course we're putting the pain on the public rotten rather than in the bank back on the banks and the bureaucrats were longs ok bailing out the citizens versus the banks let's go and refer. to your book debunking economics the newly expanded version and let me ask you this question keeping here book in mind when barack obama was asked why he bailed out the banks and not the citizens back in two thousand and eight he referred to the multiplying effect of lending to banks bailing out banks creates a multiplier effect in the economy it sounds like neil liberal economic steve came and he just wrote a huge book debugging that entire notion talk about it yeah it's the whole model of how that money and mine used aguada going just have to be in the first class because economists believe a little theory of how money is generated which the question what i used in the book from an america

one group passes better master's -- mastery and also working with interpreters then there is the thirderference. the fascinating experience it is all citizens of israel. jewish israeli and palestinians fall spoke fluent hebrew. everybody learns english then this second language is french or arabic.language is french or arabic. some kids insisted on speaking in english even though he brew was better but because of dominance in they were making a point* we have to learn your language you do not have to learn hours. it is more when then my third so there was some active resistance. so many fascinating dynamics. >> what struck me about the book is how excepting he was with his prison sentence. 10 years. that is the exact opposite regardless of how guilty you are. is that indicative of his peers or special just for him? >> i am not sure how to answer that question. my sense is it was expected. even if for sentencing he was a year and a half with the military trial and prisoners told him what to expect with the process and imprisonment. and even those who work criminals who stole a car or po

i thought he did a very good job of the detail and the nuance and the mastery of just how difficult these global summits are. >> ari? >> well, very sat in on a number of these summitsummits. these summits are often some of the most profoundly unproductive things. this was one of them. i don't blame that on president obama. it's just the nature of bringing 20 leaders together with tremendously diverse points of view. especially when the issues in europe are as complicated and they divide europeans, the way they're divided over what to do. the one thing on the domestic ajen agend agenda, the president talked about here in the united states, we can do something such as hire more teachers. once again, the president sees the solution as more government spending, more stimulus. he comes squarely on the side of the stimulus in 2009 was the right thing to do. we need another stimulus. that i think is a real domestic problem for him. the stimulus, the first stimulus, didn't work. he's not running on it. he doesn't brag about it. he keep seei ings saying we nee people on the government payroll. i t

the japanese showcased their mastery of the craft of busting holes with torpedoes and gun fires a nighttime close range engagement. we lost for cruisers, went down with about 1000. you really could say the battle of savo island was a disaster, even worse than the pearl harbor attack. pearl harbor, so-called defeat at pearl harbor if you will simply a natural result of a battle ready force -- it was a surprise attack. there's really nothing you can say about the failure of u.s. combat arms when they're rolling out of their bunks at 7:00 to battle dive bombers screaming down on the. transfigured a combat ready u.s. screen, artful cruiser force under combatant command. not fly commend. this crew is significant. you have a couple of captains with two squadrons defending the subject of their sensor in a nighttime patrol position, i.e., they are sitting ducks go back and forth like is waiting to be picked off. here comes the admiral with his very well trained crews falling upon them. this laid bare a number of deficiencies in u.s. navy's fighting spirit and their doctrine, all across the board. t

earlier age than the palestinians did so we were working in a language that one group had better masterynother group, so there was problematic and is also problematic dealing with interpreters for the same reason the question you just asked there is a fear the party kind of interference and the ability to really communicate directly. one of the most fascinating experiences i had dealing with language had to do with a group that was all citizens of israel, but palestinian citizens and jewish israelis. they did all speak fluent hebrew because they are citizens. it's required that they learn hebrew. the israelis are not required to learn arabic. everyone learns english then as a second language they have a choice between french or arabic. and there were some palestinians in the group that insisted on speaking in english even though hebrew was actually better than english, but because of the issue of dominance of language because the palestinians were in some ways making the point like we have to learn your language come you haven't had to learn the hours. speaking in your native language, e

came to the conclusion that the finale was strong but the previous two episodes before were the masteries. >> i forget you were here. over your shoulder, don't look over your shoulder it's bad television, i'm looking at a bloomberg poll that says president obama is up 13 percentage points on mitt romney. that seems awfully skewed although the pollster that did that for bloomberg is an excellent pollster. when you saw those numbers break across the wire yesterday morning, what was your take? >> well, i thought that there's no one i know in the obama campaign and no one i know in the romney campaign who believes that's correct. i'll say in both campaigns. there's no one in chicago that thinks they're ahead by 13 points. >> despite the fact that this is one of the best pollsters in the business. >> there are polls and it's outliers and why anybody sane in politics always say you have to look at the last six or seven credible polls, average them together that's why we care about averages because there are outliers on both sides and why we look at averages and why we think averages are more im
