When COVID-19 struck, the Federal Reserve stepped in to try to avert economic crisis. As the country’s central bank continues to pump billions of dollars into the financial system daily, who is benefiting and at what cost? FRONTLINE investigates “The Power of the Fed” — and how the central bank’s actions have played out over the years on Wall Street versus Main Street — in a gripping new documentary. From the award-winning investigative team behind “Amazon Empire” and “The Facebook Dilemma,” the film traces how an experiment the Fed began after the 2008 crash has been dramatically changing the American economy — exploring criticisms that, while well-intentioned, the Fed’s efforts have contributed to wealth inequality, helped today’s financial world grow far removed from the real-world economy, and prompted fears of growing inflation and an impending crash. The documentary is supported by The WNET Group’s Chasing the Dream, a public media initiative that examines poverty, justice and economic opportunity in America. The correspondent is James Jacoby. The writers and producers are Anya Bourg and James Jacoby. The co-producer is Megan Robertson.

The European blue fin tuna measures up to 5 metres long and weighs as much as 600 kg. Every year it travels across the Atlantic Ocean, returning to the Mediterranean to spawn. Although it has long been established that overfishing has left the tuna stocks close to collapse, these days the whole swarm is captured while spawning, thus preventing the replenishing of resources. No other fish in the world fetches such high prices. In Japan, it feeds a profit-driven machinery of gigantic proportions. The fishermen, too, are facing imminent extinction. The less tuna remains, the more ruthless the fight for the last of this valuable resource becomes: Raphaël stretches every legal loophole to the limit; his boats have repeatedly been impounded. Roger is one of the few who has stuck to the EU quotas and is now forced to sell his boat. Roberto got out of the business years ago and is now fighting desperately for a fishing moratorium in a last ditch effort to save the remaining spawning grounds. © 2013, Lichtblick
