The whacko named Michael Lewis over at Huffington Post is completely freaking out because the Aussie and NZ stations have already broadcast the *unedited* version, and the BBC will be running it at 3PM ET today.
They're hoping and praying that someone will file a lawsuit to prevent the airing of the unedited version here in the USA.
Real champions of free speech, they are.

The Some whacko named Michael Martin Lewis
LOL that is going to hurt Billy Boy more than an cut version here. He cares more about what the rest of the world thinks of him than what we Americans do.
I know Bryon the Aussie has reported about the viewing. Hope that Mad Ivan makes an appearance here after viewing the film.

ha ha!
I say bring it on. File a lawsuit and we will finally get Jamie Gorelick under oath instead of sitting on a whitewash commission.
Martin Lewis is a British-born, Hollywood-based humorist, commentator, producer and radio host.
In other words, he is a KOOK!
The good news is that if the unedited version was broadcast in Australia, New Zealand, and the BBC will broadcast the unedited version worldwide on its network, there will be zillions of copies made that can be shown on the internet here is the USA if ABC has tinkered with the USA version. I kind of doubt that ABC would mess with the USA version. They are not fools. We shall see in a few hours. If disney/ABC let the unedited version run, it means that Bill Clinton and the Democrat Party have no power whatsoever. Why do i get the feeling that someone or some group is trying to destroy Bill Clinton and the Democrat party, and it ain't Republicans, Conservatives or the VRWC. Any ideas. or am I nuts?
Please someone tape it so we can get the unedited version here somehow.
So why do the Aussies get to see the uncut version, has ABC said?
Yup, it's been seen in the UK too. It is devestating to slick and his slimy cohorts.
Dems believe in free speech for themselves -- and only for themselves.
I think we are all seeing the same versions, so he can relax and watch the show :-)
Maybe they'll show the un-tampered with version on BBC America? One can hope.
hey cool - two Band of Brothers actors so far - Lt Lipton and Sgt Garneer (or however that's spelled).
Well, at least the First Amendment still applies somewhere.
But certainly NOT in the Utopian paradise of the USA Left and Democrat Party. Chill winds are surely blowing.
The version I'm watching right now is BS, actualy trying to make slick willy look good..They skip his chickenshiit retreat from Somalia and Khobar towers just to name a few..Hell I would love to see the unedited version.. America needs to see the whole TRUTH of the matter..
If what I just saw here in the mid west is the cut version, the uncut version must have been a real hum dinger! This makes the Clinton administration look weak, indecisive, ineffectual, and treasonous (in the case of Albright who tipped off the Pakistanis so that we would lose Bin Ladin.) Clinton gave the "go ahead" to kill Bin Ladin as long as he "didn't have to take the hit for it" according to the characters playing his underlings in the film.
Ithink it is an excellent portrayal, but I just hope they don't trash Bush tomorrow night in an effort to be fair and balanced. There has already been a hint of that. The film jumps back and forth between the historical background and the actual day of 9/11. They showed a clip of Bush working out in a gym when he was notified about the first plane and they made him look somewhat foolish. It was a very brief scene and I hope that it does not portend of even worse treatment of him in the 2nd half.
How did Richard Clarke and John O'Neill become the heroes of this film?
Only free speech they utter, you mean.
