Koch Bros/PBS - RgrF - 12-18-2013
Anyone remember that kerfuffle? I was scanning tonight's programming and they billboarded the 20212 movie "Koch Brothers Exposed". When the time arrived they'd (PBS) substituted a Gershwin program.
Why program something you're not going to show? Seems the brothers tenticles reach far, wide and given today's date long.
Anyone here had an opportunity to actually see the movie?

"Among the organizations [David Koch wrote: has helped support financially over the years is public television, to the tune of about $23 million,"]
"\"Citizen Koch,\ a highly regarded documentary about the billionaire Koch brothers and the growing influence of money in politics after the Supreme Court's Citizens United ruling, suffered a major setback earlier this year when PBS pulled the film and the $150,000 in funding that had been promised. wrote:

I think I saw it in a weekend repeat the first week it was on. This says it is the full movie on Youtube.

If you search for Robert Greenwald at the PBS site you get one link to a Bill Moyers episode that wasn't about the Koch brothers.
If it was aired, under what name, and what station? A local station can run anything they want, as long as they have the funding. So it could have aired that way.
Here's the rundown on his top points about the brothers Koch if you don't want to watch the entire youtube production:

The question is still unanswered, was it ever shown on any PBS stations?....
Re: Koch Bros/PBS - Lemon Drop - 12-19-2013
Yes Max, it aired on KCET, Los Angeles.
Probably others.

It was either KCET or PBSW that substituted for "Exposed".
