Henry VIII had Tyndale strangled and burned for producing an English translation of the bible.

Wycliffe's translation had Wycliffe's interpretative notes in it as well, which were vigorously anti-Catholic.

But, strictly speaking, Henry VIII didn't have Tyndale burned. He was executed for heresy in Belgium, not England. But he was accused of heresy by an English agent in Henry's pay, in part because Tyndale agreed with the Pope that Henry's marriage to Ann Boleyn was illegitimate.

Another "fact," eh?
