Presidential Advisory 1776 Commission In an 11th-hour White House report, the administration that coined the term “alternative facts” says it s academics who have hijacked the truth about U.S. history. Historians, in turn, generally agree that the report released by the Presidential Advisory 1776 Commission is garbage. The document lacks citations, fails to mention Native Americans entirely, traffics heavily in American “values” at the expense of objective truths and bemoans the “radicalization of American politics” from the 1960s onward. Less clear to historians is how much of an impact the report will have on already divided and fact-challenged culture. David Blight, Sterling Professor of American History at Yale University, said that academic historians, “even those with conservative instincts, will discredit this report whenever asked. We value research, facts, evidence, and then interpretation and debate above ideology. At least most of us do.”
