Danny Schechter the News Dissector is a great journalist. I remember him from back in the very early 70s on an FM radio station in Boston. He almost (perhaps actually) single-handedly restructured how news was produced and presented back then with relative music accompanying the stories. One of the most laudable journalists I've ever known of.
I saw him on All In last night. Didn't know he was working on this but I am sure that he has been thorough in his info collection and not omitting anything pertinent to the historical value of this tale.
