Please contact your local CBS station to thank them

for running "9/11," the real documentary, in its uncensored entirety — even if they ran it after prime time.

If they chickened out, contact them about that, too, the weenies.

1. Great idea, OR.

God knows I signed tons of petitions and sent a lot of emails regarding the crap ABC is showing; it's always a good idea to hand out kudos when they are deserved.

3. On the West Coast, we got the full version!

No editing for " language" here, my friend.

Good for CBS!

:thumbsup:

4. We did too, on the SF and Monterey affiliates

But each station can decide whether to air something in its network time slot or later, or not at all. It's not a regional thing.

5. What do you mean by "full" version?

What was missing from some?

6. I didn't say 'full version'

I said "uncensored entirety," as opposed to not running it at all.

7. My husband and I watched the CBS...

...9/11 program.

We initially sat down to watch "Path to 9/11", but we were captivated
and so emotionally taken in by the CBS show. We started flipping between
ABC and CBS.

There was absolutely NO doubt that CBS's amazing documentary--based on
fact and produced with a tremendous amount of courage and integrity--took
viewers away from ABC.

As my husband said, "People are going flipping back and forth--just as they
do every night. If someone watched ABC for a bit, then flipped to CBS--ABC
lost those viewers to CBS. No contest."

It is so true, what my husband said. In their desperate attempt to make
their "mocudramentary" look like a documentary, they bounced the camera
around so much and constantly jerked in and out of scenes. It didn't feel
authentic. I literally had a headache (and probably whiplash) five minutes
into the program. It really was awful.

Kudos to CBS for a quality program, and also for another effect---taking viewers
away from the trash on ABC.
