Finding Your Roots’ Producer’s Judgment On Ben Affleck Episode “Deadly” For PBS, Watchdog Says, The PBS arrangement Finding Your Roots was purportedly suspended after the kerfuffle encompassing the disclosure that performing artist Ben Affleck has a predecessor who possessed slaves. The makers behind Finding Your Roots precluded this from the arrangement at the solicitation of Affleck. It was a certainty which went to the consideration of both PBS and the overall population because of the 2014 Sony email spills.
