Our LOcal ABC news "Why Democrats Don't Want You to See the 9/11"
Edited on Thu Sep-07-06 10:15 PM by kerry-is-my-prez
Movie.

I am so freakin' mad.

http://www.abc-7.com/articles/readnews.asp?articleid=8755&z=2&p=
Article:
The ABC miniseries The Path to 9/11 is causing some controversy. The docudrama is based on factual events and blames political figures for September 11th.

-snip-

The miniseries already has critics. Members of Clinton's administration, who are portrayed as mishandling Osama bin Laden, have already launched a strike calling parts of it false.

Others say the miniseries is right wing propaganda.

ABC executives have responded to the critics:
"The Path to 9/11 is a dramatization, not a documentary, drawn from a variety of sources, including the 9/11 Commission report, other published materials and from personal interviews."

If you watch, expect to see more Washington meeting rooms than 9/11 images of destruction.

6. Holy cow!
A minute ago it looks like it was about 136-2. You have to page forward every 10 votes or so and count the "thumbs up" versus "thumbs down." It'll prolly get freeped soon.
VOTE!

5. Done
There are about 30 or so and they are all down. it's the dumbest rating system I have ever seen, there are 3 pages of the thumbs down in that little box. None up! And it doesn't say what the total is.

13. The article lies, because it says
"Producers and actors say the point is to inform, not scare." If the movie were truly intended to inform, it would not resort to lies, and would not have scenes which are made up entirely. The point is to help Republicans during the coming elections, and to smear Democrats. What complete drivel.
