This is a repeat from last year of the expose on Wall Street's "small" fees that add up over time and the effects it can have. I am not sure if John Bogle is in this or not.
In the NY area it airs at 10PM tonight on Channel 13 (WNET), Caught part of it the last time, will catch the rest tonight.

Never in the history of market day-traders’ has the obsession with so much massive, sophisticated, & powerful statistical machinery used by the brightest people on earth with such useless results.

I watched it while in a hotel room, doing some travel. I didn't see it the first time around. Worth watching if you've not seen it.
