Last night the Salt Lake City PBS channel played a documentary featuring men who were onboard the battleship USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay when Japan surrendered and signed the armistice document ending World War II. I enjoyed it.
Imagine showing this on the same day the U.S. pulled out of Afghanistan after essentially losing a war there. The contrast could not have been more stark.
If this was done on purpose, highlighting the disastrous performance of the Biden Administration, the always-liberal PBS network will probably terminate their contract. On the grounds of 'apostasy.'
If it was long scheduled and shown inadvertently, some functionary in SLC was politically naive to a fault. It would have embarrassed PBS less to have had "technical difficulties" for an hour or shown a couple of the Rick Steves travel shows they always have lying around.
