An email American just sent out:

Mr. xxxxxx,

I think it is important for you to know that ABC had factual errors in
its dramatization, and we are looking at possible legal actions as a
result. According to the 9-11 Commission report, it was not American
Airlines, nor was it even the right airport that was depicted. In
reality, it was another airline, flying out of Maine. Please know this
was a tragic incident in our company's history and we hope you will be
sympathetic to our employees and our airline on this day especially.
Again, we are outraged by this situation, and we alerted ABC about its
gross error. It is very unfortunate.

1. this is suspected to be bogus

just for the record

2. This is an obvious fake and a likely parody. It does not belong in LBN. nt

3. Ah, no

AmericaBlog is a respected site, and not known for fake stories.

Though I don't think it quite qualifies for LBN.
