My colleague Becky Noble wrote a VIP piece earlier about a PBS documentary being done about how the Jan. 6 Committee hearings were packaged like a show to portray a narrative for the American people -- the narrative the Democrat-controlled Committee wanted to sell.
But as we previously reported, the Committee engaged James Goldston -- former president of ABC News and a documentary storyteller who ran "Good Morning America" and "Nightline" -- to help sell that narrative.
Now the documentary is confirming exactly that, with shameless comments from Adam Kinzinger about why they brought in Goldston. Goldston also explains what happened, that he got a call out of the blue that they wanted a "storyteller." "While they were brilliant lawyers, storytelling for a mass audience is not what they do," Goldston said. "Storytelling" is one way of putting it. It was Goldston who viewed it like a "miniseries" with episodes/hearings, each with a different theme.

"It was a real question of, is this going to work or not," he said. If what you are doing is a hearing into the truth, you concentrate on the truth, not whether you can manipulate the public with a slick production.
"We knew how high the stakes were," Goldston said. "We were either going to make people realize that this was important or once you've lost them you've lost them for good."
But the funny thing about that first day, as I wrote, is that they were already scaling back expectations about what they were going to present. They admitted they wanted to tie it together in a "comprehensive narrative." I wrote on that first day how former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) (I love saying "former" about her) read a tweet from former President Donald Trump on Jan. 6 but then left out the part where he said, "Go home with love and in peace."
