This is why Now with David Brancaccio got cancelled. It was honest news that upset the right wing. I was able to barely stomach watching a program they aired recently on 1964 (I believe it was "The American Experience"). It was basically about how the conservative (scared white people's) movement really took off. They featured the usual suspects like Phyllis Schlafley, Barry Goldwater, etc. who really drove their points home about "how dare you say that the American good life has to be accessible for all Americans?" drivel.
