What do you think?

What do you think about the controversy over Ken Burns new documentary The War?

Burns should re-cut the documentary to include more on the role of Latinos in the war.
Shooting and airing supplemental material should be accepted as a fair compromise.
Burns should neither re-cut nor shoot supplemental footage.
