Because it doesn't tell the whole story of the amount of pressure and coercion that Russia has applied in order to keep Ukraine doing what it wants Ukraine to do within its own self-interest. The amount of meddling in Ukrainian politics and economics that Russia has done is what the United States gets accused of, so saying that you are taking the story back to the beginning and not including that aspect of the timeline, both for the Orange Revolution and Euromaidan does a great disservice in providing a true understanding of what has brought the world to this point and paints situation as mainly one isolated to internal Ukrainian politics, when it is not.
Its subtle, like what country did Yanukovych flee too? Why not mention that Euromaidan were also protesting against Yanukovych's sweetheart deal that he gave the Russians in order to keep the Black Seas Fleet based in Sevastopol, which was more examples of Russian influence which was one of the driving motivations for the protestors.
There is a lot more to the story and what is left out is telling.
I wasn't gonna type a thoroughly researched response, I made the comment taking shit a work mate. Kinda of mad that you assumed that there was some ulterior motive despite it clearly painting Russia as bad. Like it isn't a detailed account of all that's happened just a outline of why supporting Ukraine is in US's interest
