So by the collective logic displayed here, the History Channel and all it has reported is is no longer crediable because of one series it aired? Meaning Everything on The Revolutionary War, forward.. All of the shows dedicated to expantion of the US, and anything and everything else it has done or ever will do based on recorded history is garbage because of one series???
I don't know about you all but in my mind I have this tool I use to filter out the bad from the good. I call it discernment. The way it works is I do not close my mind off to anything until I have heard and thought on what it is all about. I do not pre judge something, just because it is packaged a certain way.. Or Rather I do not judge an e-book by it's cover art. This allows me perspective that the closed minded will never have.
This is what a history documentary should look like:

clear clean facts, sometimes but not always presented dramaticaly.
History channel docus are based oftern more on myth than fact and hyper sensationalist with weird action scenes.
For people who dont want to learn jackshit about history, but want to see civil war reenactments.
truckers.............
truckers.
yeah right, I also question it because of that one program! It is a history channel, so what is the historic importence and significants of current truckers and their trucks?
