There is that too. But, mostly, in the US, if you print *facts* about
what the other side saw happen to them, or what took place that wasn't
mentioned in dear old granddad's, or just dad's history books, its
"revisionism". Removing say.. Thomas Jefferson from history books, to
replace him with St. Thomas Aquinas, on the other hand, is seen as
"fixing" a deficit in US history, and upholding its "Christian"
heritage... >>head -> desk<<
