Yes, Koch has apparently funded a good amount of Ken Burns' work. I have no reason to suspect that Ken Burns has let Koch influence the content of his work, however.
Maybe the Koch brothers really like Yellowstone and asked for a whole program focused on that National Park.
My guy. Just because there isn't a law that says"Don't help fundraise for upcoming litigation " doesn't mean you should.
Thomas is literally the kid saying, "You didn't say I couldn't eat a gallon of ice cream."
Had an episode touching on why Koch wants to deregulate. TL,DL, they got hit with fines from their Corpus Christi refinery plant (releasing benzene…polluting the area around the plant), and decided it was cheaper to buy off some politicians than it would be to not be polluting assholes.
Just in case anyone wondering what’s wrong with deregulation.
How is it secret if he posed for pictures?
Shocking! /s

we trusted conservatives, and this is what we get. and no, biden/obama do not get a pass, conservative dems are the new republicans.
