I note that there isn't very much to compliment her about in the years prior to becoming the first lady, so those years don't get covered. There is no announcement of a miniseries about the life of a republican (lite) governor who gets elected in a democrat state who might be running as the next republican nominee. You'd think that NBC would run a story about the "fiery yet avuncular politician who is able to find common ground with his opposition"...........or some garbage like that.......Los Angeles – NBC has ordered a four-hour miniseries based on the life of Hillary Rodham Clinton that will star Diane Lane, NBC entertainment chairman Bob Greenblatt announced at the TCA press tour Saturday.
The project will be written and directed by Courtney Hunt and recount Clinton's life from her time living in the White House as First Lady (the role of Bill Clinton has not yet been cast) to her tenure as Secreatry of State.
I'm wondering when NBC is going to do a miniseries about Obama as Jesus Christ......

The term “hagiography” has also been used as a pejorative reference to the works of biographers and historians perceived to be uncritical or “reverential” to their subject, and is arguably the more common usage in a non-specialist context
