1. Check out the part where he wanted King to stop marching. Moyer says
King pushed and made it "possible" for LBJ to support the bill!

Great Clip!

2. This was on our PBS channel today. Moyers is GREAT!
He's always so logical and straight forward with his info, and always backs it up with facts. I too think it's very sad that the media were the ones who created all the disputes and distortions in the last weeks! SHAME ON THEM! All they want is a fight and they don't really care who is fighting or why.

Moyers is a national treasure. I was so taken by the beauty of his writing in that piece.
