New Documentary Focuses On Life Of Eva Braun's Late Husband
NEW YORK—The History Channel announced Thursday it will air a new documentary this fall examining the life of the late husband of prewar German model and amateur photographer Eva Braun. "This film is a fascinating, in-depth look at a central figure in Eva Braun's life," said History Channel spokesman Charles Lansing, adding that the broadcast will feature more than 300 archival images of Braun with her husband, a German civil servant and vegetarian noted for his charisma and interest in art. "Braun's longtime lover had a significant impact on her views regarding politics and aesthetics, and the footage of him we've unearthed highlights the persuasive power of the man she often wrote about." Lansing added that the new documentary, entitled The Man Behind Eva Braun, will cover the very active life of Braun's spouse right up to his sudden passing in 1945 in the basement of the couple's Berlin apartment.

Think about the hatchet job the History Channel did on the Kennedys and I think you'll then find this funny...fucking History Channel.

and I was trying to figure out wtf would be learned by exploring the life of her late husband (assuming she had one)... But given the History Channel's fixation on Hitler, I guess I could not really be surprised.
