Bombshell
Eighty years after the atomic bombings that ushered in the nuclear age, Bombshell explores how the U.S. government sought to manipulate the truth about the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki through propaganda, censorship, and press co-option while minimizing the horrific human toll. Bombshell sheds light on a group of intrepid reporters who let the world know the truth.
