To paraphrase Twain, when the local PBS interviewer does a report about
you, you can go over the result with a divining rod and never find
yourself.

This is as good as journalists or documentarians try to be, seemingly.
Last month my company was featured in a professional magazine; the
article was entirely favorable, but much was inaccurate; quotes were
invented. Any time you read a newspaper article, watch a news story, or
see a movie about any subject you know well, you see that the authors
are consistently in error.

Ken Burns admitted in the afterward he has a personal agenda about the
issue of race; he sees the world through race tinted spectacles.
