NPR addressed a "false narrative" claiming that billionaires Stewart and Linda Resnick hoarded water on their farms that could have been used for firefighting. Experts cited by the network stated that municipal water systems are not designed for hurricane-force wind-driven fires and that the Resniks' groundwater was not germane to the problem. However, the reporting is criticized for being self-contradictory regarding whether water supplies actually ran out during the crisis.

### DSM-5 Revisions, Hoarding Disorder, Conduct Disorder Criteria

- **Episode:** [409: Head Lag](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/409-head-lag.md)
- **Published:** 2012-05-17

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/409-head-lag/chapter/dsm-5-revisions-hoarding-disorder-conduct-disorder-criteria.md

The proposed revisions for the DSM-5 include new mental health classifications such as "Hoarding Disorder" and expanded criteria for "Conduct Disorder." The criteria for Conduct Disorder are criticized for being overly broad, potentially labeling typical teenage behavior as a mental illness. This expansion is viewed as a gateway for increased pharmaceutical intervention in children.
