Care to be specific? I suspect that Burns is liberal, and while I would not agree with his politics, I fail to see how his politics have influenced his work, other than the screen time he gives to black people.Their plight was central to the Civil War, and so could not be avoided. What was inaccurate about that documentary? Did he come across too strong against slavery?
His documentary "Baseball" was very accurate. I thought his focus was too broad, but hardly slanted. Or inaccurate.
"Jazz" was good for what it was. And he did rely on Marsalis and company. While I do not agree with everything Marsalis says, he certainly knows his jazz history.
So please tell us where he went wrong, what facts were inaccurate, what the other side is, and what "subjective" interpretations you are referring to.
