[history]
ABC is altering its upcoming miniseries "The Path to 9/11" in response to intense criticism from members of the Clinton administration that the two-part, made-for-TV film is filled with factual errors and lies, a network official reportedly said.
Three members of the administration former Secretary of State Madeleine K. Albright, former National Security Adviser Samuel R. Berger and Clinton aide Bruce Lindsey, who now heads the Clinton Foundation said they sent letters to Walt Disney Company, parent of ABC, demanding that it re-edit or pull the five-hour film, scheduled for air Sunday and Monday nights without commercial interruption.
The Washington Post reported Friday that an ABC executive, who requested anonymity because the network is making only written comments, said small revisions have been underway for weeks.

Most likely, yes. I can't see the Clintons being this vocal against it if it was not something they wanted people to see.

Can you tell us more specifically who said "BIG CUTS" are being made? It's very important we get our facts straight.

All of this was discussed last night..It doesn't seem that anything MORE has been added since then. Or cut, I should say.

I've heard it said that the liberal Dems always generate exactly the opposite of what they preach. This is a good example.

Yep -- you can force sexual immorality, blasphemy, and curse words upon us in the name of "art," but the truth? No way.
Free speech for them, not us.
Where's all this talk about "viewer education, not censorship" and "use the remote?" Oh yeah, it's about them.

The DVD sales are gonna go through the roof. That is unless, the Xlinton regime gets to em again. Death threats, unexplained suicides, mysterious plane crashes, can all cause people to cave.

The media is totally dishonest and left-biased anyway, so this comes as no surprise. It would be more surprising if ABC or any other media house of prostitution actually produced a show which was about facts.
To: pabianice
Relax Rush has the orginal . He already said that on Monday he will give us the parts they edit. So clinton is screwed again!

Someone needs to leak the unedited version. I want to see what Clinton is covering up.
To: pabianice
No big surprise.
Liberals have never let themselves be inconvenienced by the facts. This extends to the dinosaur media, as well as the rewriting of history in our children's textbooks.
Let ABC know what you think of their utter gutlessness in the face of democrat hypocracy and lies.

I think I'm going to be violently ill. Another fold by the mainstream media. You can't get anymore obvious. This is Communism at its finest. I, too, will wait for the uncut DVD.
And what a bunch of brainwashed sheeple to not SEE what the Left is capable of doing. Sandy Berger, a convicted criminal, and a former President, debarred for perjury, wins over freedom of speech. Amazing.
