ABC/DISNEY TO BE SUED BY CLINTON |
ABC REFUSES TO PROVIDE COPIES OF BIASED 9/11 MINISERIES TO CLINTON, BERGER,
ALBRIGHT:
ABC has been aggressively advancing its inaccurate and politically slanted
miniseries, "The Path to 9/11," to the right wing.
Rush Limbaugh has been provided an advanced copy of the film, as have
obscure right-wing bloggers like Patterico. But ABC has refused to provide a
copy to President Clinton.
Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright and former National Security
Adviser Samuel Berger have also requested copies of the film from ABC, but
both have been denied.
Berger and Albright are harshly criticized in the film in scenes that,
according to former counterterrorism czar Richard Clarke, are "180 degrees
from what happened."
In her letter to Disney President and CEO Robert Iger, Albright writes,
"While I have requested a copy of the broadcast, I have yet to receive one.
I have been informed by some who had been given the right to view the
broadcast that the drama...asserts as fact things that are not fact."
In addition to advance screenings, an unnamed ABC official provided
right-wing blogger Hugh Hewitt with details about potential edits to the
miniseries, including the note that "The message of the Clinton Admin
failures remains fully intact." Fight back -- tell ABC to tell the truth
about 9/11.
