TV: Should I watch "Frontline" or "Flash Gordon?"

[230RN]

Should I have watched this from our local PBS channel?

Frontline: Trump's Takeover.
Inside President Trump’s high-stakes battle for control of the Republican party. How Trump attacked fellow Republicans and used inflammatory rhetoric that rallied his base and further divided the country in his first year as president.

I suspected there would be too much inflammatory rhetoric and speculative inyourendo.  As in, y'know, like, that was all bad stuff he was doing.

Decided to watch this instead:

Movie Flash Gordon: The Deadly Ray From Mars
Movie

Sci-Fi, 1938.

KWGN-TV3 (Ch:2-3) 3:00 am (120 Mins)

Prettier girls, clear definition of who the bad guys are, less inflammatory rhetoric.

Good choice, eh what?

I'd watch GILLIGAN'S ISLAND  before I'd watch Frontline.   Other than that,  I'd prefer Buck Rogers.

Funny how legacy media doesn't say such things about the people that keep making inflammatory claims about the GOP. I guess charging the President with racism, and claiming that the next SCOTUS justice will strip half the country of their rights, is not at all divisive.

Accusations are cheap.

Defense is expensive.

Well-known technique.

Terry, I'm just curious.

It's 3 lines.

What did you have to come back to, less than 24 hours later, to edit?   

[230RN]

Changed "Allegations" to "Accusations."

Decided it sounded stronger.  I edit interminably, sometimes right up to the editing time-out.  I try not to edit something of mine that someone's quoted but sometimes I screw up on that account.

I will also edit even the slightest typo whenever I spot it.

OK, but I think the question that developed was how long that period is here on APS, starting from this post:

There's an edit time-out?

Me, I just keep editing until the "Modify" button goes away.  I never paid specific attention as to how long that took.

Maybe it's just a count to a maximum number of edits, I don't know.
