Breitbart: A PBS documentary released this week shows that the January 6 Committee used James Goldston, the former president of ABC News, to create a “miniseries” whose primary purpose was to create primetime propaganda that would reach the American public.
The committee was derided by critics as a “show trial” because then-Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) rejected the nominees of the minority party, for the first time in American history, and appointed anti-Trump Republicans in their place.
Every single member of the committee opposed Donald Trump, and testimony was initially held behind closed doors, meaning witnesses were denied due process, since the other side of the argument was never represented, nor contrary evidence brought.
As Breitbart News reported at the time, the committee brought in Goldston as a consultant, despite his controversial history as the network’s leader at a time when ABC was said to have buried the story of the late billionaire sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein.
Goldston’s work for the committee was immediately apparent in the first publicly televised hearings, as committee members read their remarks from a TelePrompter. more here
Were you a “political junky” 38 – 45 years ago, I was it was hard to believe Ronn and Don were in the same party. Ronny tried to kill taxpayer $ for PBS every year! Bob dole kept PBS alive!
Bob was “the most liberal man n Congres for 50 years!” Gore 96 debate. But he was not a “Bush Republican”- he did not back: LBJ, BHO,/JO B! He backed g/op; even conservatives!

My taxes being used for crap I don’t ever watch.
That “propaganda miniseries” led to people getting jail time and their lives ruined.
EL TRUMPO HAS SO MUCH TO FIX IN SUCH LITTLE TIME!!
LOOKING AHEAD TO 2028, WHO’S IN THE QUEUE FOR MAGA 2.O???
I’ve learned over the years that there is no part of our history that PBS can not bastardize, marginalize, or paint in the worst possible light with the worst possible motives. Their “American Experience” series broad brushes everything with an institutional racist tint.
Last week I watched their 4-hour miniseries on Benjamin Franklin, A Ken Burns production so you know what to expect from that pip squeak America hater. I knew a fair amount about Franklin going in but all in all a good series. Of course, we were reminded about half a dozen times that Franklin did own a few slaves, and precious little was devoted to his abolition work and his dedication to building schools and communities for slaves and free blacks in Philadelphia.
Trust me on this; this is going to age about as well as Left of the Dial.

So it is now revealed to have been a contrived, extended hit on Trump.
What was your first clue?
Was it when Pelosi rejected the GOP selections and chose Cheney and Kinzinger?
Or was it when they burned the evidence after the committee disbanded?
PBS – no advertising, but they steal our money thru taxation or beg for it during their telethons. Socialist scumbags.
Like that dude that runs Wikipedia – always got his hand out for donations. It makes him feel good to proclaim that Wikipedia is free of advertising, and seems to think that anybody who uses it should fork over some money. He can EEFFFF himself.
When do the lawsuits start?

When PBS does their begathons I remind people we are all already forcibly donating.
The truth about the J6 circus hearings and J6 itself is coming out.
They state media will ignore it as long as possible but it will eventually be clear.
Ouch! damn the truth hurts. Everyday more usurpers found, prosecuted & sent to prison.

“Despite”, or Because of?
