Corps and Country

Last night, as was mentioned in my initial post today, I spent some time watching PBS. The first program about Kashmir was boilerplate, politically-correct liberal. However later in the evening, I was pleased to see an objective, even at times, laudatory program about the training of the United States Marine Corps, a bit of the history of the Corps, and a museum in Quantico, Virginia dedicated to the USMC. The normally peacenik PBS people who broadcast the show seemed genuinely proud to be Americans and portrayed our brave Marines in a fair light. I only wonder why the program aired in Nashville so late at night rather than in prime time or the family dinner hour but from 11 pm to 1 am. Was this because the local broadcasters, who are camped firmly on the left as is apparent with almost all the programming they select for air, were worried that such a positive portrayal might be used as a recruiting tool by those bad old warmongers?
