I think you might want to actually watch it before you think that it's whitewashed. I'm not sure that they even need to whitewash events from the 1890's.  |
this is the problem with the history channel. it's not historically accurate. it's entertainment.
they didn't buy mckinley's presidency. in fact, this created such a huge backlash it catapulted grover cleveland into the potus. moreover, it ultimately led the u.s. government to bust the trusts, including jp morgan's.
