THINK PROGRESS: Write Sean Hannity And Demand He Tell The Truth About 9/11
Write Sean Hannity And Demand He Tell The Truth About 9/11

Last September, over 100,000 ThinkProgress readers demanded ABC tell the truth about 9/11. You helped expose the factual inaccuracies and partisan misrepresentations in ABC’s controversial docudrama “The Path to 9/11.”

Here we go again. This Sunday, Fox News’ Sean Hannity is planning to broadcast the fictitious scenes that ABC found unfit to air.

The original docudrama contained a false, dramatic scene where former National Security Adviser Sandy Berger refuses to give the order to the CIA to take out bin Laden. According to the bipartisan 9/11 Commission report, this scene never occurred, and several members of the 9/11 Commission criticized the scene. The conservative writer of the film was forced to acknowledge that the scene was “improvised.”

It’s one thing for Fox News to provide their usual biased political commentary. It’s another thing to promote discredited fiction as news. Sean Hannity’s executive producer told the Los Angeles Times today that Hannity and Fox News “feel the American people deserve both sides.” The only two sides in this case are fiction and fact. It’s our obligation to stand up for the facts.

2. He's never going to tell the truth.
Nobody is ever going to tell the truth about 9/11. I say let him show it and ignore it. The only people that are going to watch that horseshit already believe it anyway.

3. Why don't they show the Dick Cheney scene?
Edited on Fri Jan-26-07 06:17 PM by Ezlivin
You know, the one that Norman Mineta testified about before the 9/11 Commission.
MR. HAMILTON: We thank you for that. I wanted to focus just a moment on the Presidential Emergency Operating Center. You were there for a good part of the day. I think you were there with the vice president. And when you had that order given, I think it was by the president, that authorized the shooting down of commercial aircraft that were suspected to be controlled by terrorists, were you there when that order was given?

MR. MINETA: No, I was not. I was made aware of it during the time that the airplane coming into the Pentagon. There was a young man who had come in and said to the vice president, "The plane is 50 miles out. The plane is 30 miles out." And when it got down to, "The plane is 10 miles out," the young man also said to the vice president, "Do the orders still stand?" And the vice president turned and whipped his neck around and said, "Of course the orders still stand. Have you heard anything to the contrary?"


A lot of people died on 9/11 and because of 9/11 we've been dragged into two wars.

It would be nice to find out exactly the "orders" to which Dick Cheney referred.

NO POINT TO ASKING HIM ANYTHING.... THE ONLY TIME HE'LL STOP SPOUTING DEROGATORY COMMENTS TOWARD THE DEMS, IS WHEN HE'S DEAD.... AND THAT WON'T COME SOON ENOUGH....!!!!!

7. I wrote, but I don't think we'll do much more than annoy him...
Maybe KO will put him in the *worst* position tonight.
