More on the Ken Burns documentary about Vietnam
Here’s a roundup of reactions to the Ken Burns documentary about the Vietnam War.
Sounds as though Burns’ work was subtly pernicious.
[NOTE: As I explained earlier, I didn’t watch it.]
The New Neo
A blog about political change, among other things
… “subtly pernicious”….
When I saw that turn of phrase I couldn’t help but think of
Frank Zappa.
Mark Moyar’s op-ed review in the WSJ (which I linked to) seems reasonable to me.
“It seems to me, however, that we have only begun to scratch the surface of this profoundly dishonest piece of work.”
I didn’t watch it because I feared this is what it would be. Good move!
“subtly pernicious”.
Ha, ha.
Pernicious with a smile?
Pernicious with an earnest brow?
Pernicious like FDR.
