Summary:

The National Park Service added footage of conservative and right-wing events at the Lincoln Memorial to a film about the memorial after conservative groups complained the original video featured too many liberal events, according to documents released under FOIA to two liberal advocacy groups, The Associated Press reported. The groups, Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility and People For the American Way, sued the Park Service after it refused to release documents about how the film's revision came about.
