Historically accurate is precisely why they had to pull the project.
Cannot have any truth escape about this family.
The Kennedys were/are ...trash with cash.
When you really think about it there isn’t much to write about the Kennedy’s that is positive—except JFK’s war time experience and the two Camelot years of his presidency. Robert Kennedy seemed to be fairly free from taint, but his life was far from epic.
Aside from that, the Kennedy family was about as dysfunctional as it is possible to get. Given the bent of today’s TV offerings—dysfunctionalism—I guess that would make for good ratings. But the Kennedy family obviously did not want all its dirty laundry put out there for the world to see.
For the record I was an ardent JFK supporter as a 17-19 year-old. Came the dawn. That said, I deplore the assassinations of JFK and his brother.
As an Irish Catholic let me say thank God we were spared yet another tribute to the immoral, crimminal, shanty irish family named Kennedy. A disgrace to the Irish race.
