Scholastic and ABC/Disney in CAHOOTS on 9/11 shamudrama!

[MoonRiver]

:mad: I know it's not politically correct to watch CNN, but I just heard them discussing this. CNN asked Scholastic and ABC/Disney to respond to CNN about their promoting this propaganda as fact. Scholastic just said they are reviewing things. ABC/Disney gave no statement.

1. Crockumentary, shamudrama

Somebody ought to start a "name that trash" thread ...

2. Yes, Scholastic issues a statement that they are not related to ABC's

film but they still are recommending the material they distributed to the schools. But Scholastic issued their "disclaimer" in such a way to put some distance between them and the controversy but did not withdraw the materials already sent to the schools.

3. What's so important here is that MSNBC and CNN appear to be

seizing the day and pointing out the inaccuracies.

This aspect of the fiasco is a good one.

4. Sometimes competition is a good thing.

5. Yes indeed.

6. It is an opportunity for competing news organizations to

stick it to a rival network. Let's hope the prospect of THAT might cause ABC to edit out some of the more blatantly false "dramatizations".

7. I think the sharks will smell blood in the

water soon, very soon.... The story of the story will be bigger than the actual story itself...
