Let me get this straight

CBS does a miniseries about the Reagans, Reagan fans get mad and squash it, and it was a Good Thing.

Now, the History Channel does a series about the Kennedys, Kennedy fans get mad and squash it, and it's a Bad Thing?

Am I getting this right?

And yes, I am aware The Reagans aired on Showtime, and I'm sure The Kennedys will air somewhere as well, even though Showtime has already said it won't do it.

Maybe the real test of broadcast bias will be how far down the food chain The Kennedys will have to go to get on air....
