Senate Dems sent letter to ABC threatening to revoke their broadcasting licenses if ABC does not pull the 9/11 Docudrama that tells the critical truth as to how Clinton was very responsible for 9/11 incidents.
Will not go into the threat, as that is well covered in other posts.
Will point out however, that the stupid Dems even misspelled a word in the second paragraph of their letter to ABC!
"The Communications Act of 1934 provides your network with a free broadcast license predicated on the fundamental understanding of your principle obligation to act as a trustee of the public airwaves in serving the public interest. Nowhere is this public interest obligation more apparent than in the duty of broadcasters to serve the civic needs of a democracy by promoting an open and accurate discussion of political ideas and events."
Principle, meaning "a basic generalization that is accepted as true and that can be used as a basis for reasoning or conduct" should actually be Principal "the chief reason, most important element"
The movie has obviously struck a nerve.
LOL! The spell checker is no good for context!
Sciatic at the very least
Why even let people see it first to begin with? Someone is always going to want to make changes. Better to just ask for forgiveness IMO.
Exactly.
It is ABC's fault for being stupid enough to give anybody an advanced copy of the film.
Stupid and repulsive!
If you hadn`t planned to watch before, now it`s become one of those you can`t miss it. Then, with all this whinning, everybody is going to wonder what was cut. Of course, the Clinton folks are so trustworth, we should just believe them.
Unless this is the reaction they wanted.
Come on now,,,,,we all know that the democrats and Clinton bear absolutely no responsibility at all for 9/11. We all know that it's all Bush's fault. (s/off)
Since when does the DNC have the power to pull anyone's license?? That sounds like pure arrogance to me!!
Democrats have no principles; can't be expected to spell same-sounding words.
Struck a nerve because the truth hurts. Clintoon was so wrapped up in covering his and Hitlery's butts he didn't have time to govern. When he left office it was one of the few times I was thankful for the term limit on presidents.
>Since when does the DNC have the power to pull anyone's license?? That sounds like pure arrogance to me!!
It is. The message is, run the show and our FCC (when we get elected) will mess with you.
Sure they do. Remember how outraged all the democrats were when Dan Rather and CBS used FORGED DOCUMENTS to smear President Bush just prior to the last election? (s/off)
Remember the liberals' reaction when it was proposed that government funding not be used to pay for defacing the flag, and debasing religious symbols?
It was CENSORSHIP, and every leftist on the planet flew into an apoplectic rage.
Evidently they were being insincere.
Giving out an advanced copy stirs up controversy which makes more people want to see the film to see what the big fuss is about. Pretty shrewd on ABC's part.
