On September 10th and 11th, ABC is planning to air a "docu-drama" called "Path to 9/11," which is being billed as "an objective telling of the events of 9/11." In fact, the film was written by an unabashed conservative who twists the facts to blame President Clinton.

Tell ABC to cancel this show.

ABC's new six-hour film was apparently screened in advance only to conservative bloggers and journalists -- and received extensive praise from none other than Rush Limbaugh. The film is apparently also riddled with factual errors and distortions; former counterterrorism czar Richard Clarke has completely refuted one of the key scenes in the show.

It's simply stunning to think that as this fall's election approaches, a major television network would devote six hours of prime-time programming to air such a slanted and inaccurate program.

Dozens of CBS affiliate stations in the United States are afraid to air a documentary about the Sept. 11 attacks in case they're hit with massive fines for profanity because of expletives from firefighters.

The two-hour 9/11 focuses on a group of New York firefighters who are in one of the World Trade Center's two towers on Sept. 11, 2001, when they were destroyed by planes hijacked by al-Qaeda militants.

t's not really stunning at all, CNN airs 24 hours of slanted inaccurate programming, but I digress.

Everything I heard about the CNN programming was that they were going to be replaying EXACTLY the same coverage they played on September 11, 2001 -- as events unfolded on that day. How is that "slanted" and "inaccurate"? Not that I'm a fan of CNN, mind, I just don't get how that could be considered slanted and inaccurate.

I don't exactly mean their 9/11 coverage, more their everyday news coverage.

The recreation of events is based almost exclusively on the bipartisan Congressional 9/11 Report. It is meticulously researched and fact checked.

Director Cunnigham correctly points out ( http://blogs.abc.com/thepathto911/2006/08/clarification.html ) that this is not a “right wing agenda movie”. It in fact bashes the Bush administration in a number of ways, and also makes Bush-basher Richard Clarke look like a hero.

If I can find it in a dvd format online (or one of your other playable formats), it's all yours.
