PBS Documentary Trailer available

PBS posted a six-minute trailer to their upcoming documentary:

Not bad at all. I didn't hear much in the way of stuff that isn't
true until more than halfway through the clip.

You can tell a lot about the producer's agendas and biases, by
listening to the background music. I heard respectful, epic,
energetic, tragic. But listen to how the music changes when they
start talking about LDS gays. Their PBS is showing! :) Then they
move on to talking about the temple, and the music gets respectful
and epic again.

My personal guess: The documentary will have some errors,
misrepresentations, and uncharatible judgements. But several cuts
above what all the other non-LDS folks are saying about us.
