It's a heady episode this week as we examine the success and failures of two real presidents (Wilson and FDR) in shaping public perception of wars that defined their administrations and compare the exploits of two non-presidents (DeWitt Clinton and Douglas MacArthur) and how they attempted to shape reality around them.
Special thanks to Jason Jonathan Rivas who graciously let his thesis, _Scripting Memory: Hollywood, The Federal Government and Public Memory in WWII, be the foundation of this episode.
