I don't know...until this thing airs...I don't believe anything anyone says about it. I wouldn't be surpried for a minute if this thing gets changed at the last minute to make us look stupid.

"Presenting such deeply flawed and factually inaccurate misinformation to the American public and to children would be a gross miscarriage of your corporate and civic responsibility to the law, to your shareholders, and to the nation."
Where was this outcry over Farenheit 11????????????????

It will be interesting to see if ABC caves. If it does then I never want to hear them complain of "chilling effects on free speech" again . This letter should be grounds to have governmental personnel that wrote it brought up on charges.

Isn't former Senator George Mitchell Chairman of Board of Disney?

They bought a bunch of Disney stock and are looking to bump up the rating.

Well, now if they don't succeed in getting it stifled, huge numbers of people will watch just to see what the fuss is about. What I have to really wonder about though is the fact that, apparently, this film creates a hugely negative feeling toward the terrorists, i.e., the islamofascists. How much of their heft is behind all of these squeals, I wonder.

"I wonder why." I want to see their internal polling. These aren't the actions of a gang of politicos who are confident about their chances in November.
To: Howlin
I wonder why. Rhetorical question.....right?

They sure are desperate, aren't they? They do squeal after a successful game of pin the blame on the donkey, don't they?

I believe Rush about the parts he saw, but as he said today - he has no idea how much he didn't see. Rush said it was pretty damming to the clintonistas. Time will tell.

Funny, I don't recall these same senators threatening sanctions against CBS for their blatantly false 60 Minutes episode so close to a presidential election.
Man, they are just shooting themselves in the foot with a .50 cal on full auto.

A few libs at IMDB have seen it and they're LIVID. So I take it as a good sign. But, again, I wouldn't be surprised if it gets changed before Monday.

Reid is Senate Minority Leader, not Senate Democratic Leader ... why would his sign anything that way? I am not sure this is legit. Have we seen anything to confirm that this letter has been sent by these Senators ? Not that I wouldn't put something like this past them.

Contact: Jim Manley or Rebecca Kirszner, 202-224-2939; both of the Office of Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid
WASHINGTON, Sept. 7 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Urging him to cancel the grossly inaccurate upcoming miniseries "The Path to 9/11," the Senate Democratic Leadership today sent the following letter to Disney President and CEO Robert Iger. Disney's subsidiary ABC erroneously claims the misleading miniseries is based on the 9/11 Commission report and is planning to air it on Sept. 10 and 11. Shockingly, the network is also planning to use the program as a teaching tool through Scholastic, potentially misinforming thousands of children about the most important event in recent American history.
The text of the letter, signed by Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid, Assistant Democratic Leader Dick Durbin, and Senators Debbie Stabenow, Charles Schumer, and Byron Dorgan, is below.
