ABC will air the film. FWIW, the NY Times gives the film a thumbs up.

You know, apparently Bush doesn't come off faring well either.

minor edits Kind of like "sort of pregnant"
To: Hildy
That is what I understand as well. If it makes people really hate the terrorists, I'll be satisfied. They are our enemy. Good to hear from you Hildy. Peace.

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, who warned that telecasting "right-wing political propaganda" might violate the terms of ABC's government-mandated broadcast license. Got three little letters for ya, Harry:

The situation was further complicated Friday, when ABC and other networks agreed to carry live a 15-minute speech from President Bush on Monday night, the fifth anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks. This speech will air at 9 p.m. Eastern time, forcing ABC to interrupt Part 2 of the miniseries in many markets, including New York and Chicago. BUMP
To: Hildy
and that won't be edited of course.
no one should watch this show.

If this miniseries comes off as seen by Hugh Hewitt, or even fairly close to that, I am proud of ABC for not bowing to Bruce Lindsey et al of the Klinton Kamp & Legal Team, or any other dem / lib pressure.
All the demands that ABC kill it may end up in a lot more people watching.

I hope the opening scene shows a bunch of senators in a smoke-filled room, scheming to block the movie.

Yes, but Bush isn't howling like a cat on a hot stove. Only Clintonistas who want their second shot at White House power are doing that.
To: All
Do remember that Rush has seen all 6 hours and he applauds the film...
To: hoosiermama
they will edit out all of the "personalization". the CIA attacks will be called off, but they will not show who gave the order.
To: katieanna
that's the UNEDITED version.
To: katieanna
Producers said late Friday that they had finished making minor edits to "The Path to 9/11" amid a firestorm of protests from leading Democrats including Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, who warned that telecasting "right-wing political propaganda" might violate the terms of ABC's government-mandated broadcast license. ABC and their right winged fanatical point of view led them to this debacle.
I wonder what would happen if they were to tote a left wing fanatical point of view?
I guess we'll never know.
