I sort of understand being "charitable" in memorializing someone who just died, but outright rewriting history boggles my mind. It's also one thing for friends and family to be hyperbolic but when news reporters gloss over the truth I'm really appalled. I've seen it happen too often that an untruth gets repeated and suddenly becomes part of People's belief system.
