Bid difference there.


The difference means nothing to my point.
The POINT remains true....both only represent a very small minority. Period. Those KKK/Nazis do not represent all republicans no more than the anti-trump riots represent all democrats.

Why not just rename the channel to 20th century television network? That would suite them better. Let another channel take over for the other 9,900 years of human history...
oh I dunno...maybe more people are interested in periods of history that they can relate to, it might be tough to get an audience to watch a series about Greek Poetry in 400 bc, dontcha think?

They want the bias to be in their favor. If the History Channel showed conservative bias, they'd love it.
I love the hypocrisy from the right. Crying about media bias, all the while, following outlets like Fox, Breitbart, etc.

AHC is worse than History with the endless Nazi loop. I've taken to calling it the American Nazi Network. Not a day goes by there isn't some marathon of Nazi this and Hitler that. History does it to but nowhere near as bad as AHC. American Heroes Channel? Ummm, yea...sure.


Iwatch History Channel for Forged in Fire and that's it. Occasionally AHC will actually have something interesting about the SEALS or fighting aircraft history and such but I'd say at least 80% of their programming is some sort of Nazi stuff.


Makes me wonder a lot why I even have a 43 inch TV and pay for cable. I wind up watching DVDs or TV Land most of the time.....

I read the other day that they are bringing back "In Search Of..."

In Search Of Reboot Coming to History Channel with New Spock | Den of Geek

Makes sense given how popular conspiracy theories are right now.

You understand that Facebook is not a TV show, right? The people who run their Social Media have nothing to do with their programming, and are probably not even in the same building.

All that being said, what on earth is not historical about that moment from the Olympics?
How is World War 2 a Liberal thing? World War 2 is the most infamous event in World History, and there is far more footage, and first hand accounts available than from any event prior. Of course it receives more coverage?

Are you upset watching the nazi scum get beat over and over? Do you get annoyed seeing America at it its highest point, defeating evil?

An alternate reality of Earth, where everything that he doesn't agree with is somehow an agenda against him, and his right wing sensibilities...or should I say sensitivities.

This is the same guy saying that a picture of Chewbacca perfectly matches that of Michelle Obama and describes her perfectly, so that should say something about OP.
