We write with serious concerns about the planned upcoming broadcast of The Path to 9/11 mini-series on September 10 and 11. Countless reports from experts on 9/11 who have viewed the program indicate numerous and serious inaccuracies that will undoubtedly serve to misinform the American people about the tragic events surrounding the terrible attacks of that day. Furthermore, the manner in which this program has been developed, funded, and advertised suggests a partisan bent unbecoming of a major company like Disney and a major and well respected news organization like ABC. We therefore urge you to cancel this broadcast to cease Disney’s plans to use it as a teaching tool in schools across America through Scholastic. 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.
The Communications Act of 1934 provides your network with a free broadcast license predicated on the fundamental understanding of your principle obligation to act as a trustee of the public airwaves in serving the public interest. Nowhere is this public interest obligation more apparent than in the duty of broadcasters to serve the civic needs of a democracy by promoting an open and accurate discussion of political ideas and events. [...]
Should Disney allow this programming to proceed as planned, the factual record, millions of viewers, countless schoolchildren, and the reputation of Disney as a corporation worthy of the trust of the American people and the United States Congress will be deeply damaged. We urge you, after full consideration of the facts, to uphold your responsibilities as a respected member of American society and as a beneficiary of the free use of the public airwaves to cancel this factually inaccurate and deeply misguided program. We look forward to hearing back from you soon.
Who in the press will stick up for ABC's right to air this miniseries without having its broadcast license threatened?"
The answer is, very few will. The NY Post did, and I'm sure other conservative leaning newspapers will as well, but for the most part it's business as usual. All the news that fits our agenda we print.
This time around, though, we're here to take up the slack, and hundreds of thousands of people around the country will learn the truth. Drop in the bucket? Sure. But it has begun and nothing the left can do will put the genie back in the bottle. They fabricate stories, photoshop pictures, create false documents to impugn a Republican, but when it comes time to think with an open mind upon the disaster that was Bill Clinton, it's clear that he is off limits.
Traitorous bastards, all. And yes, I DO question their patriotism and if this isn't a fine example then nothing is.
