WAH 055 Betrayed its own principles

Not just WAH 055, TimeGhost as a whole did that. They claim to present a fair picture for the war and the people involved, but – as an example – one of the later episodes – their special on Hollywood – portrayed Joe Breen as an “avid antisemite,” despite the lack of a primary source to fully verify that (he did write those words Sparty quoted, but even the men he wrote those letters to never saw him as an embodiment of an antisemite). Breen’s actions are also more evidence of him not being an antisemite.

If angry remarks are evidence of bigotry, then I might as well be a bigot because I said a lot of unsavory stuff when I was playing hockey and/or when I’m angry. But it doesn’t work like that. You would have to put a huge percentage of the population into that basket if that were the case.

It’s important to focus more on the actions rather than the words. And Joe Breen was no Gudrun Himmler.

And this isn’t the only time TG pulled off stuff like this.
