In 2003 PBS aired a show titled "Einstein's Wife" that attempted to prove that Albert Einstein's world changing theories of physics were a result of a hidden collaboration with his first wife, Mileva Maric. This documentary claimed that Maric’s work on the theory of relativity was lied about and hidden away all these years by Einstein, his biographies and history.

Unfortunately it isn't true. Not only is it not true, but also so many historians have since complained to PBS that they surely know the real truth by now, even if their original airing was a result of their honestly just not knowing the truth then. Yet, this faux documentary still has a PBS sponsored webpage and was recently aired by Australian broadcasters. PBS is also still selling DVDs and attempting to make money off a film that has been discredited by dozens of historians and even attacked by the scientists in the film who were misquoted and misrepresented by the film's producers.

Yet, PBS still has a webpage selling this DVD to the public, despite that it has been roundly criticized now in two countries, by the scientific and historical community and even those interviewed in the movie itself.

Allen Esterson, a Freud critic and writer, has been instrumental in revealing the truth about this ... fraudulent re-write of history and has penned many exposes on the film. (For an archive of Mr. Esterson’s work: http://www.esterson.org/)

Several of the scientists and historians that were featured in the film contacted Esterson to say that they were misquoted and the ultimate purpose of the production was misrepresented to them before they agreed to the filmed interviews.

Esterson has engaged in a dogged battle with PBS to remove the film from their webpage, to distance itself from it and to cease all possible future airings of the faux documentary. So far, however, our tax funded TV broadcaster has rebuffed his efforts. Worse, they are trying to justify the film by massaging the facts to fit their desire to continue making money from it.

Not any different than the Global warming money makers.
