Actor Harvey Keitel, star of ABC's "The Path to 9/11", said he believes movies and TV programs detailing what happened that day are important....

...Filming the story behind the attacks "evoked in all of us...a sense of responsibility to the heroes of that day, to be as truthful as is humanly possible to honor them," (Harvey) Keitel said. "There isn't anyone from the top on down to the caterer and prop master who didn't have it in their bones to get it right."

Keitel, who lives in New York's TriBeCa neighborhood, visited Ground Zero a few days after the attacks....

I will never get over this vision: likeable rogue sandy berger, former NSA honcho, clandestinely stuffing his Jockeys with classified terrorism documents. Yet he gets off scott-free and continues to appear as a respected talking head on the media circuit.

Only in America!

BTW, a lady berger appointed as a top intelligence officer during his term was the same lady who was caught a few months ago leaking classified information to the media.

Ditto what the furry stoat said: just click on the link and let it load for many minutes before you try to watch it.

Maybe he received an autographed copy of the Clinton "body count."

I think I will wait for the "Director's Cut".

[Arizona Carolyn]

Perhaps living only miles from Ground Zero hardens some New Yorkers' view of the former Pres a little more than those on the left coast.

[Arizona Carolyn]

I was given the choice.

[Arizona Carolyn]

Sadly, that was my thought, too.

[veronica]

I'm amazed that ABC is running it after all the pressure from the leftwingnuts.

[Phibes]

I viewed that at my total disgust. Harvey did indeed cave. I'm so friggin disappointed right now but convinced Hollywood makes complete slugs outta people I once respected.

Great post! Thanks!

A controversial television dramatization that alleges former president Bill Clinton, seen here in August 2006, did not try hard to capture Osama bin Laden has roiled emotions over who is to blame for the September 11, 2001 attacks.(AFP/File/Jorge Uzon)

He looks nervous to me, like he's hoping he's sounding convincing to the Fuhrer et al.

[patriciaruth]

has roiled emotions over who is to blame for the September 11, 2001 attacks.

IIRC, it was Osama bin Laden, Zawahiri, Kahlid Sheik Mohammed, Satan, Mohammed Atta, etc.

[Recovering_Democrat]

Oh, waaa waaa. Look, I hope the show goes out with the so-called "minor" edits.

The Clinton lawyer letter should've been the last straw for Iger. If the ABC Corporate Chief has a pair, he'll use that letter like he would a two-ply strip of Charmin and set that mini-series to air EVERY anniversary of 9/11 for the next five years.

[thedilg]

until we know what has been edited out, it hard to comment on this. but the simple fact that they did edit it - tell us alot.

I recall the hype that occurred before the video where Clinton was interviewed for, I believe two hours. We were told Clinton lost his cool and went into an insane rant. Nothing like that happened. I said at the time they set me up. Never again.

I will be surprised if doctrinaire liberals (ABC, NYT. WoPo, etc.) can put an honest twist on this story. Be prepared for an attack on the president and deification of the Dems.

I have my fingers crossed but with little hope.

Godspeed, The Dilg

You're welcome!  I wish you good luck in making them work.

Just a couple of additional thoughts.....

• For some strange reason, I have to push the Play button on the QT bar TWICE on each clip in order to make the player play.  I don't know if this is an anomaly specific to the StoatPuter or if it's part of the way this particular QuickTime control works.  If you have a gray rather than a white band going out from the right of the Play Control, that indicates that the clip has indeed been downloaded to your puter.  If at that point it still won't play then there MAY be a problem with your QuickTime installation, or some other issue that's preventing the player from working.

• If the clip has been downloaded to the player, that means it's on your puter and that always means that there's more than one way to skin a weasel  :-)

The clips are in the .mov format, and so if you go to your file manager and do a wildcard search for '*.mov' (without the quotes) on your C drive you will find wherever they are hidden on your particular machine, which means that you can then simply click on the file and it will open up and (hopefully) play in the Quicktime standalone player.  I did this and it works just fine...it allows you to bypass the browser player once the file is on your machine.  If you need more detail on how to do this please let me know...I am hesitant to do so without your request because I don't want to appear rude and condescending if you already know about this stuff but just didn't think of doing it.

Be advised that these particular files average 30-50 megabytes in size and so they will take some time to download even if you are on a highspeed connection.
