How many times did they use the words "Bill Clinton" or "Janet Reno"? They give you a sliver of truth to gain your trust (ATF/FBI fucking up) so that they can serve you up the lies and narratives. Its one of the medias/hollywoods top tactics. Its a modern whitewashing of one of the most important events in the history of our nation.
I saw it back when it was on tv (and I thought it was pretty good), so I'm going off memory; I know Reno was mentioned and there was an actor playing her part on the show, and she was on screen. I don't remember exactly how many times they mentioned it. Clinton I can't remember. I definitely don't think, based on what I saw, that the FBI\ATF came out of that show looking very good.
They specifically never mention their names though. Its implied who they are. Its also implied they were being misled and had little or nothing to do with the situation (which evidence shows is not true).
My wife was 5 years old at the time. I was 13 so I at least remember it happening. I keep injecting, "fucking Clinton or fucking Janet Reno" into it so I know she knows.
I saw it, and it was pretty sympathetic to the Branch Davidians, showed that they had all races as members and was pretty damning of the ATF and FBI

The main FBI officer goes to Janet Reno in a brief scene where he asks for permission to use the tear gas. She says she will ask the President.
So, they make it clear that they both made that final decision. Other than that, the entire show is focused on the ATF/FBI.

One other good point it made was about the militarization of the Feds and GayTF.
