Bloggers Ballistic Over ABC Docudrama

"You know that massive, decamillion dollar donation ABC is making to the Republican National Committee? You know, the $30-40 million movie that lies about the lead-up to the attack on 9/11? The one that is being broadcast for six hours of the most expensive broadcast time in existence? The one they say is a "docudrama," and is therefore free to be as inaccurate as it chooses to be?"

"ABC lost Scholastic as distributor of the film to our schools because of questionable facts in the movie. What is interesting is that Scholastic chose to do this 'thorough review' after they already published it. For a corporation that is so active in the education of our children, shouldn't all their material demand a 'through review' prior to release?" [Crooks & Liars]

"President Clinton has now called for ABC to either correct the lies in "Path to 9-11" or not show it at all. Not only is the pressure building on ABC, but it is also effecting Scholastic Books who planned to team up with ABC and teach 9-11 right wing propaganda to our kids." [Blog for America]

"Disney’s Chairman of the Board is former Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell (D-ME). Senator Mitchell has a long and distinguished career both inside and outside government and he knows how important it is to accurately represent historical events. We need to remind him that 9/11 was a national tragedy, and that politicizing and flagrantly misrepresenting the facts about 9/11 is wrong." [Think Progress]

"New Poll: 43% Still Believe Saddam Had Something To Do With 9/11... even though it has been proven that Bin Laden and Al Qaeda was behind it.Even since this "Fake-udrama" titled 'The Path to 9/11' has gotten press and air time, people have proven just how like play-doh their memories are. And just how selective their amnesia is.Attributing events to former President Clinton that either never happened, or happened during the current Bush administration. Flat out rewriting of the past to fit an agenda." [PaganDancer]
