But it definitely is bad media.

I was watching a program on the History Channel on Indiana Jones, and i actually enjoyed it. Had a decent amount of good stuff on it, with only a wee bit of woo.
Until it hit the end of it, where it brought up the bit from the last movie.
Y'know, the uh...
Crystal skulls. :sick:

Having spent a good deal of time under "alternative" forums, i'm well aware they're fake.
They have evidence of more modern toolmarks, and on some of them their providence disproves 'em.

None of which was mentioned on the show, in fact, they even claimed that there were no toolmarks present, and mentioned nothing of the bad providence or heavy fakery of the time period.

Heck, they didn't even mention that there are currently more than the six they mentioned in private collections and such around the world, and had a lady who held seances with the dang thing, and she claimed it spoke to her and was called Max.

For Pete's sake! What the heck, Snopes and Wikipedia were more accurate than that bit!

And it even included interviews with established Egyptologists, like Mark Lehenr or Zahi Hawass, and a number of other non-woo information.
