Did they consult you on this?

 

[ZombieKissinger]

No, but judging by the first 2:45, they certainly had no qualms consulting communists

Ha. Haven't even watched/listened yet. Hopefully this is forgotten & doesn't turn political, but American Experience by PBS has been pretty good the last few years.

Caveat, I mainly listen to documentaries via YouTube with an ear bud while I work.

At times I disagree with their takes on what historical facts mean or how those events translate to the present, but I can't deny the educational & entertaining value of the productions.

If government funded media would stick with non-partisan history, there are plenty worse entities & industries that should get the hatchet before them.

That said, stoked about Ken Burns' American Revolution.

That picture of the kiss between you and your wife looks like it was taken at gunpoint by the Waffen SS

I agree. It’s been a while but I used to enjoy Frontline a lot as well. They could get interviews and access information that would provide a more in-depth understanding of many events and topics.
