Top White House officials worked closely with producers of a movie about the successful killing of Osama bin Laden and pushed them to incorporate the administration’s talking points, according to administration documents unveiled by Judicial Watch.
“I took your guidance and spoke to the WH and had a good meeting with [John] Brennan and [Denis] McDonough and I plan to follow up with them; and they were forward leaning and interested in sharing their point of view,” screenwriter Mark Boal wrote in a July 2011 transcript of a Pentagon meeting.
Brennan is President Barack Obama’s chief counter-terrorism adviser and Denis McDonough is Obama’s deputy national security adviser.
Boal is working on a movie about the raid with director Kathryn Bigelow, who directed the successful “Hurt Locker” movie about bomb-disposal experts in the Iraq War. The new movie is provisionally titled, “Zero Dark Thirty.”
The filmmakers “are basically using the WH-approved talking points we used the night of the operation,” according to a June 2011 e-mail Under-Secretary of Defense for Intelligence Michael Vickers sent to the Pentagon’s PR chief, Douglas Wilson.

I bet that Hillary will have a starring role.
Who’s playing Bambo? Paul Ruebens?
Man, I cannot WAIT for Fumigation Day!
B Movie news
A cameo appearance as a shark nibbling on bin Laden's remains as he is dumped overboard.
You’re forgetting who wrote this. They are going to nominate Hitlery for VP, and this is going to be the vehicle that they will use get Obama reelected. Of couse, she will be second only to the Almighty, i.e. Obama himself.
True, but Hilary won’t play Hilary. Maybe Sharon Stone or perhaps Radha Mitchell? Too bad Margaret Hamilton isn’t around. She would have been perfect.
Some dialogue from the trailer...
President barrack Obama: Gentlemen, you can’t fight in here! This is the War Room!
General “Buck” Turgidson: Mr. President, about, uh, 35 minutes ago, General Jack Ripper, the commanding general of, uh, Burpelson Air Force Base, issued an order to 2 SEAL teamss of his Wing, which were airborne at the time as part of a special exercise we were holding called Operation Drop-Kick. Now, it appears that the order called for the SEALs to, uh, attack their target inside Pakistan. The, uh, helicopters are fully armed. The aircraft will begin penetrating Pakistani radar cover within, uh, 25 minutes.
President Barrack Obama: General Turgidson, I find this very difficult to understand. I was under the impression that I was the only one in authority to order the use of SEALs.
General “Buck” Turgidson: That’s right, sir, you are the only person authorized to do so. And although I, uh, hate to judge before all the facts are in, it’s beginning to look like, uh, General Ripper exceeded his authority.
This movie is Rated PC- no minor allowed to enter unless accompanied by a parent with a contraceptive.
Absolute scum. They hate the “Neanderthals” that have the guts to put on the uniform but have no problem using them for propaganda purposes.
‘Course “commander zero” was the one that made the ‘gutsy’ decision and put his “political” future on the line.
(If I hear Hannity call the decision ‘gutsy’ one more time...)
"...These documents … show that politically-connected film makers were giving extraordinary and secret access to bin Laden raid information, including the identity of a Seal Team Six leader,” reads a statement from Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton."
Disgusting.
