The Truth About the Vietnam War


Clearing The Fog Radio has an episode with two interviews titled The Truth About the Vietnam War.

PBS is currently airing a ten-part documentary about the Vietnam War by Ken Burns and Lynn Novick that is financed by the Koch Brothers and Bank of America and promoted by the Pentagon. We speak with Vietnam scholar, Professor Bob Buzzanco about the real history of the Vietnam War, what led to it and the opposition that developed. He emphasizes that it is important to understand this history so that we do not repeat it in North Korea or the Middle East. Then we speak with Vietnam Vet, David Ross, about his experiences in Vietnam and subsequently in organizing veterans to stop the war.

Pay attention to who is sponsoring the PBS series. Are you in the habit of praising what these sponsors usually promote? Does it raise any doubts in your mind?
