Tried to watch his Baseball then gave up on him altogether.
Yeah, I feel the same. Baseball started out pretty good, and then turned into one big diatribe about how awful and racist America is. I couldn't take it, he just hammered it and hammered it.
It ticks me off the way these elitists think that baseball gives them the common touch.
Burns, George Will, Doris Kearns Goodwin.
Burns Baseball, includes errors such as film of a pitcher supposedly pitching in a World Series who did not play for either team. The blog, So many mistakes in Ken Burns Baseball, lists many more.
When PBS viewers complained about Burns choice of documented plagiarists Mike Barnicle and Doris Kearns Goodwin as narrators for his baseball sequel, The Tenth Inning, PBS ombudsman Michael Getler defended Burns choice: We all, of course, make mistakes, and most of us, I think, believe in redemption and second chances.
Boston writer Mark Leccese didnt agree: The ombudsman for PBS nonchalantly classifies plagiarism as a mistake most of us are ready to forgive. Not so fast Plagiarizing is one of the most immoral things a journalist can do. It involves not only the theft of someone elses work, but the deliberate deception of readers I do object loudly to the ombudsman for PBS brushing off plagiarism as a mistake we should stand ready to forgive and forget.
