[at-l] Ken Burns: The National Parks: America's Best Idea

[JPL]

well, its not strictly a nature special, its a celebration of public lands.  so the right wing nutcases would of course put a label on it.  if a big corporation doesn't own it, then it must be [communism/socialism].

  Haven't seen any yetm but what in those would somebody on the very-far
  right say that they made Ken Burns look lioke a communist. It seemed
  the weirdest thing to hear about a nature special.

  Not meant as political, just generally confused about that one.
