Thanks for the kind words. One always has to choose between coming off as pedantic or correcting nonsense. (When you think about how much the media gets wrong on subjects you know about, you can only wonder how badly they're reporting subjects of which you know little.) Another canard we've managed to clear up for Snopes.com is the notion that Churchill objected to reducing funding for the arts, saying, "Then what are we fighting for?" https://richardlangworth.com/arts and http://bit.ly/2jymB7X And then there are the Epstein Churchill busts, both in and out White House, about which all manner of exaggerations and untruths circulate: https://richardlangworth.com/churchill-bust-not The latest on this shaggy dog story is that President Trump asked the British Embassy to re-loan the Epstein bust loaned to President Bush. So there will soon be two Epstein Churchills in the White House again—along with the Official Biography presented to President Obama— i.e., more Churchilliana than ever before—and more fodder for the media to fixate over.
