The more I thought about this last night, the worse it appears. This is 55 years ago. How many generations has this been going on? The story left out the fact that the band was basically created, the four Monkees hired by the show's creators when the creators wanted to draw in teenagers and other kids. They had seen the huge popularity of the Beatles and wanted to recreate that.
These were Hollywood types, they also produced Easy Rider and Five Easy Pieces. One of them stirred controversy in 1975 when accepting an Oscar for another movie with his blatantly liberal political comments about the Viet Nam war. It appears to me the show and the band were created for the purpose of influencing teenagers and other youngsters with these imbeds.
One of them was the son of the president of Columbia Pictures.
It just smells a lot like the kind of shenanigans the Democrats pull against opponents. It also smells a lot like Alinsky type undermining. Those imbeds would have fed the anti-war movement and harmed Nixon.
I think this is a rabbit hole worth exploring by someone with the capability of working with film and videos.
