Following complaints, ABC tweaks its 9/11 mini-series
Chicago Tribune ^

Posted on 09/07/2006 11:21:19 AM PDT by Sir Gawain

ABC toned down a scene that involved Clinton's national security adviser, Samuel "Sandy" Berger, declining to give the order to kill bin Laden, according to a person involved with the film who declined to be identified. "That sequence has been the focus of attention," the source said.

The network also decided that the credits would say the film is based "in part" on the 9/11 panel report, rather than "based on" the report, as the producers originally intended.

Well, it could be on daytime TV. Oprah would have serious competition with Clinton on daytime TV.

Actually, Bill Clinton scribbles "do you think we should ever kill Bin Laden, or just send him to a tropical island.... mmmm, this hot babe here has a mouth like a vaccuum......" on a draft report but his handwriting is nearly illegible because he is busy being serviced by Monica..... Sandy Burglar stuffs the document down his pants but years later realizes he did not manage to destroy all the incriminating evidence of Clinton's, er, distraction, so the Burglar heads into the National Archives to cleanse the files.

I think so. I was talking to Capitol. Did you call? The phone number is: 1-888-355-3588.

When the receptionist answered, "Capitol, may I help you?" I gave her a piece of my mind, lol.

I have joined the A-Team in the Los Angeles underground...

Seriously, though, I have a new job (full-time) with the university and I am working on ye olde dissertation. To say the least, things have been busy since May. Also, the history department call a month ago begging me to help them pick-up the slack and teach an evening class. Needless to say, coffee went from being my friend to being my best friend.

Here's Burglar's letter to ABC. Of course we can believe Sandy Burglar, he's an honest man. ROFL

Memo to Bush: THIS is why you don't let your enemies live.

We do NOT know exactly what Sandy Burglar took...we DO know that some he DESTROYED, and some he changed!!! And NOTHING FREAKING happened to him!!!

You call this nothing?

the best thing that could happen at this point is that ABC ends up killing this movie. it would then appear that the clintons killed it to cover their crimes and it would be far more effective than having it actually aired. I hope ABC kills this thing now. Better a martyr than a sanitized version which blames only Bush.

I'm pretty sure I mentioned 'telling the truth'. I think the real stories would be far, far worse than the fictionalized versions from hollywood. I'd rather see somebody playing Mansour Ijaz on TV explaining to Sandy Burglar why it was a good idea to get the Sudanese or the Saudis to turn over OBL to us in any form possible. Or having DOJ lawyers explaining to the FBI why info on terrorists couldn't be passed to State, CIA or Customs in order to avoid violating grand jury secrecy rules.

I'm with you. Tell the truth. The truth is so very much worse for Clinton than anything else.
