I won’t be watching for personal reasons.( Cowboys-Bears) For those who lived through it, it hardly seems necessary to retell a few miniscule events through todays biased perspective. It is better to read or watch a detailed analysis of one campaigh or battle.
Some events become glorified and magnified ( Pearl Harbor, D Day Hiroshima) while other equally important contributions are overlooked. For example the early serialized Victory at Sea was excellent even though it was obviously pro Navy. The editing and commentary in that series was powerful and the production was as balanced as one could hope.
The press has in recent decades has forgotten Gen. Mc Arthur.They have always hated his achievements
and sought to destroy him when they could .I would be surprised if they say anything good about the man or even mention him at all.
Mark me in the don’t care for PBS column.
