  2. One family pocketed $7.6 million by taking cans and bottles from Arizona and recycling them in California. That's fraud, prosecutors say. I saw Kramer try to do something like this in Seinfeld once. I cannot believe that this is a crime. Should people really be prosecuted for trying to protect the environment?
  3. 'Sound of Freedom' misleads audiences about the horrible reality of human trafficking.

What moral obligation does Hollywood have to provide accurate information in movies that are based on true events?
