It seems pretty beyond dispute, Lulu, that reallife documentary footage inserted into an otherwise fictional show can make that show more important than just fiction. Just as Alda's influential state house visits make him more than just a guy in show biz! The man who lead 550 million people in peace time is generally more vital than the man who leads one million people in peacetime! Some things are beyond opinion! I restate this fact about Mash documentary footage from time to time for mostly new readers to these boards!
