PBS Helps Walz Peddle His Dubious Political Origin Story

On Tuesday, PBS released their latest Frontline documentary entitled The VP Choice: Vance vs. Walz. As part of the show, PBS decided to highlight how both men came to enter politics, but for Walz, that included repeating his factually-challenged origin story.

Narrator Will Lyman claimed, “The pivotal moment came in the summer of 2004. He was a member of the National Guard and there was a raging debate going on over the war in Iraq.”

As Lyman narrated, PBS showed a photo of Walz holding up a sign that read “Enduring Freedom Veterans for Kerry.”
