The timing on this is interesting. They are omitting Chappaquidick, but yet they are doing the special close to the 40th anniversary of the event.
The same day that Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin of Apollo 11 landed on the moon, Teddy was there with a competing story. One of the most historic events in the history of mankind and ole Ted stole the thunder right out from under NASA. What a POS!!!!!
If we had an unbiased press - this would be commented on publicly...
I was thinking the same thing.
He began by declaring "There‘s so much ground to cover. We don‘t have enough time for this. And I want to show the people out there, people under 60, who don‘t know the early Ted Kennedy, don‘t remember the early Ted Kennedy, I want to show what you have got in this movie." But O’Donnell’s interview completely left out the biggest scandal of "the early Ted Kennedy" – the death of Mary Jo Kopechne at Chappaquiddick.
It's like they are thinking that if they keep omitting the facts about Mary Jo's death at Chappaquiddick enough, eventually, especially younger generations, will think of it as an urban legend. 'Did it really happen? It's not in official TV bios...' Sick.
