NEW YORK — Saying it was impossible to fit the decades of information about the conflict onto his 30-terabyte hard drive, award-winning filmmaker Ken Burns announced that he has run out of disk space for the Afghanistan War documentary he has been working on, sources confirmed today.
It took Burns and his team more than ten years to make their documentary The Vietnam War, but he said it would have taken nearly a century to pore over recently declassified documents, footage, and images of the Afghan war.
"We're talking terabytes of dick pics," said Burns with a slow five second deadpan gaze across the room. "And that's just from the classified networks."
