I meant: the director of a good war documentary would be called a traitor if he/she went deeper into topics like: LBJ's lies about Gulf of Tonkin, lies exposed by the Ellsberg Pentagon Papers, kept mentioning the killing of millions of Veitnanese , Cambodia, Lao, Nixon's prevention of a LBJ peace deal to help his own election, his talk of using nuclear bombs, etc.
I never said anything about calling the audience traitors. I think you mis-understood what I was saying. From your POV, it seems hard that Burns could leave out important stuff in 18 hours.
This page has links that answer what was left out better than I can: https://www.lewrockwell.com/lrc-blog/pbs-lies-vietnam/ https://www.lewrockwell.com/lrc-blog/pbs-lies-vietnam/
