As you know, my biggest pet peeve is media bias
The outright censoring of the movie The Path To 9/11 is a blatant example of how liberals whitewash history, and in particular, how post-Clinton Administration officials could strongarm a television network into altering an artist's work, later to keep that work from the American people.

And my family has boycotted Disney since that very day.
