Why nothing on Custer- History Channel

The anniversary of Custers Last Stand was yesterday 6/25, so I was looking for something about it on the History Channel and found nothing. There was a small 1 minute blurb about it on the website, but come on guy's. The History channel has nothing about this on it's television channel? I thought the History Channel was about History?

Unless Custer was abducted by aliens, eaten by bigfoot, had a wacky theory about Jesus, or lived in an underground bunker with Nazis he's not going to show up on the "History" channel.

Custer also didn't cut down trees or drive trucks over ice so he's not important.

You stole my line.

WTF has Ice Road Truckers and Ax Men have to do with History?

I used to watch around 6 hours a week on the History Channel. I'm down to the occasional special (like the Lost Pyramid special).

BRING BACK SHOWS LIKE ENGINEERING AN EMPIRE!!!!

The History Channel has very few real history programs now. Even worse is the Discovery Channel and The Learning Channel.
