Yakyu Night Owl@DrALJONES @Stephenleader @cainmark Did Ken Burns tell the world about John Glenn? Not the astronaut. The ballplayer who beat the hell out of his wife. The ballplayer who committed crimes against children until finally being gunned down by police. That John Glenn.

Sanitized history is the Ken Burns' way.
