Tonight on the Discovery Channel, movie about Flight 93...
It's called "The Flight That Fought Back" or something to that effect.

Good idea?

Bad idea?

Thoughts?

1. What happened
on Flight 93 has achieved the status of myth.

There are varying stories about whether or not the passengers really brought the plane down or if it was shot down by our own. I have no particular opinion about it, since I don't feel that the evidence is clear and convincing for either event. But that's just me.

2. Like a lot of things regarding 9/11.
It has been a huge coverup from start to finish.

4. Responding to my own post, but...
I'm struggling for what "good" will come out of it. I mean what revelation will be uncovered that is going to have a positive impact. Maybe my views are too shallow, someone tell me if this is the case. I also wonder if there will be any anti-Muslim backlash as a result.

3. Both good (to a degree) and bad...
Bad idea...on the Discovery Channel. The channel usually tries to present some sort of "fact" or "truth" about a topic or investigate an issue in which most of the information is available.

Good idea...on say a made for tv movie in which the aura of truthfulness and incontrovertable (is that the word I'm looking for?) truth can be given but nobody takes it completely seriously.

Just my humble opinion.
