I was listening to Micheal Reagan, his son, talking today. He said that the WHOLE THING, not just the AIDS quotes, is a hit job. He said there is not a shred of truth in the movie - he didn't recognize either Reagan or Nancy, the way they were represented.

He said they portrayed his Dad as a doofus dumbbell and idiot without a thought in his head. He said they had him cursing and taking the Lords name in vain and he said his father NEVER did or would consider talking like that.

All in all, he was furious and said the family was hurt.

The way he was talking, I don't think he thought that taking out a quote or two would fix it. The whole thing was inaccurate and totally a smear job.

If that's so I pity the fools stupid enough to sponsor the show. Nevertheless, they must be made to feel the pain. If this turns out to be an a-historical smear, rather than just "interpretation" of historical fact, I think we should press for a written and public repudiation from each and every sponsor.
