Lie To Me's Take on the Hand-held Lie Detector: It's Not Eggzactly Science

In previous message threads, we have discussed the U.S. military's new hand-held lie detector and how terrorists can fool it. I was quite pleased to see how the new Fox television series, Lie To Me, dealt with this weapon of self-delusion, and it's the topic of AntiPolygraph.org's latest YouTube commentary:



Go to the YouTube page for this video to watch in larger, high definition format and/or subscribe to our YouTube channel. This video may also be downloaded as a 49 mb mp4 file.

Note: This message thread was originally started on Monday, 9 March 2009, but was deleted after YouTube unceremoniously removed the public availability of the video in response to an automated copyright claim by Fox. Later that day, YouTube restored the availability of the video after we successfully disputed Fox's claim, arguing that the inclusion of a brief video clip for commentary purposes on a not-for-profit basis and in a way that does not diminish the value of the cited work is fair use under US copyright law.

This is one of the stupidest shows on tv. A guy who can know if somebody is lying just by looking at their face expressions. Geeeeeeeeeeeez Louise. With a show based on such a stupid premise, who would believe anything they say about a polygraph?
