Bunk !
The film should not be aired. Period.

Most academic historians would be delighted to stick a knife in Reagan's ribs.

Anytime, anywhere.

The hate him for his faith, they hate him because he's a Republican and, most of all, they hate him because he was a rabid anticommunist.

This dispute over "The Reagans" is not to be taken lightly. While on the one hand, its lack of substance can only guarantee failure, on the other hand, its like someone rewriting your family history...as a Stephen King novel. What they're doing is grotesque and worthy of profound outrage and retaliation.

I don't think any of you realize how incidious this crap is.

With the population of the US changing, and many new citizens (legal and illegal), there are a lot of people that are absorbing recent US history from $hit like this.

For example: I have a fellow Doctor/colleague (Indian; a VERY educated and generally genial man) who in a conversation a year ago, started relating events about JFK and Nixon that were so twisted, my jaw dropped. Suddenly, I realized that he was drawing his 'facts' from the 2 Oliver Stone films by the same names and I politely asked him where he got his information from..........I was correct in my assumption that he had rented the two Oliver Stone films and had absorbed the twin indictments of (1) a corrupt US government that will stop at nothing if you get in its way and (2) the evils of the Republican Party as exemplified by Richard Nixon. I had to correct him and do 20 minutes of debunking about the two films and the career of the famous historian {/sarcasm}, Oliver Stone.

Believe me, folks THIS stuff is dangerous!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just ask yourself how many naive people will be swayed by this and accept it as a correct portrayal of history........its on during prime time by a 'reputable' network, isn't it?
