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?

Yes Max, it aired on KCET, Los Angeles.
Probably others.

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