My Letter to ABC

If you haven't heard yet, ABC intents to run a "docudrama" called The Path to 9/11 on September 10th which inaccurately attributes the causes of 9/11 to the Clinton administrator and Democrats. It's discussed in detail on Media Matters as well had being featured on Countdown last night(C&L has a video as well).

This morning I went on ABC and wrote this in their feedback section:

Please do not air Path to 9/11. It is a gross misrepresentation of the events leading up to one of our nations greatest tragedies and to exploit it for obvious political reasons is disgusting.

Furthermore please take down any "education" material you have related to the show.

If this documentary airs I will boycott your network, there are plenty of other non-blatantly biased networks for my entertainment purposes.

Some critics will probably cry about liberal documentaries like Bowling for Columbine or SuperSize Me, but the main difference here is that these are seen by choice. They weren't aired on public airways for the simple fact they don't have any real relevance other than pre-election propaganda. It makes me start wanting to buy Adbusters again to support the taking back of our public communications from the hands of easily influenced and greedy aristrocrats.

You can also go to the offcial ABC blog and make a comment if you'd like, although it's now "moderated" so only the comments that fit the shows agenda are put up there. I made one myself countering some of the Micheal Moore comments but I doubt it will make it up there.
