Thanks to public funding of Pee B.S., we suffer this tripe and Bill Moyers.

“New PBS specials coming soon:”

How The Rosenbergs saved America.

How political correctness and cultural sensitivity rather than teaching math, science and English in our public schools has made our children smarter.

Why Hitler, Stalin, Khmer Rouge and Saddam all had better socialist systems than America.

Kinda like the revisionists who claim Shakespeare was gay and/or stole his work from someone else. To liberals, true greatness cannot be tolerated. All must be hammered down to the least common denominator—except them of course.

Very funny, but unfortunately not that far fetched for them.

Ideologt trumps facts, where PBS is concerned. But they have their model in BBC. Thank God they don’t have BBC’s tax base.

I didn’t read the article. Is there more than meets the eye?

There is more, but not in the article. When Einstein won the Nobel Prize he sent it all to his former wife. About $30,000, which was a year’s pay at Princeton.

The last statement has some merit. But the anti-slavery sentiments of these two Kentucky-born persons was one reason for their marriage.

Typical. I’d heard this story many years ago but didn’t realize that PBS had been running a documentary on it. This confirms yet again that the left is a horrid creature so bereft of its own achievement that it must dig up and rewrite history to propagate a mythology to inflate their own egos. I suppose we can be pleased in that they did not attempt to make Einstein gay as they have with so many other historical figures.

I might suggest they write an article or two about Mohammad’s wife. Now that is an interesting story of a woman lifting up a man.

You probably know more about this than I do, but I thought Mary Todd Lincoln’s family were slave owners and that she was rumored by some to be a confederate sympathizer? I highly doubt that she was, and it’s certainly not her fault what her parents or other relatives did, but I also highly doubt that she guided Abe to his views.

**If it hadn’t been for racism and sexism, black women from Central Africa would have landed on the moon in 1794.

**Xian “Butch” Chang: The gay man who built the Great Wall of China.

**Mohammed Saed Butros: The true designer of the Eiffel Tower.

**Erased from history: Louis Pasteur’s lesbian housekeeper and her scientific contributions.

**Did the Vikings steal Iceland from Latinos?

**Did Alexander the Great get credit for military victories engineered by his concubine?


Just giving PBS some ideas for future documentary productions.

Was a guy from the “Doobie Bros.” a big defense dude also?

But of course Frank Gaffney’s documentary on anti-jihadist Muslims was insufficiently fact-checked for PBS. And of course the PBS Ken Burns documentary on WWII had to be vetted by every minority group and was found to be insufficiently inclusive of Latinos, and had to be revised.

But the Einstein documentary? That they fight tooth and nail.
