Clarence Thomas and Ken Burns
Clarence Thomas and Ken Burns definitely don't hang out, according to Ken Burns.
  • A new ProPublica story features a photo of filmmaker Ken Buns with Clarence Thomas and David Koch.
  • Koch helped fund at least one of Burns' films, and has donated money to public television for decades.
  • But Burns released a statement making it clear he doesn't know Thomas.

On Friday, ProPublica published its latest investigation into Clarence Thomas, revealing that the Supreme Court justice had secretly attended at least two donor summits for the right-wing billionaire Koch brothers.
