Discovery Channel and History Channel are full of utter rubbish
"Bigfoot Expert" and why Discovery Channel Stinks
This hardly warrants comment. At a time when all of humanity needs to be schooled on REAL science, two of the networks that one would think would stick to the known, do not. Discovery and History are rife with all manner of not only unproven topical programming, but demonstrably false programming.
One of Discovery's worst offenders is referenced in the above link. The History Channel is teeming with everything but history. A look at any other network is likely to uncover other offenses to the senses.
One tiny light in all of this is that it seems that both of these networks have dropped references to "aliens" in the extra-terrestrial sense. In their stead are dozens of reality shows(so-called), that aren't at all real save for programming being based on what a very few people do to earn their ways through life.
Less fill, and more hard hitting sciance and history would do both outlets some real good. I don't see it happening. They'll almost assuredly continue to wallow in least common denominator programming.
That is truly a crime when so much is at stake.
