I see where F9/11 is going to premiere on Showtime
I wonder if the jerks who didn't have the guts to rent it or see it at the movies will watch it now?

I bet the networks will take their sweet time to show it if ever, especially since the 2006 election is coming up

1. Get ready for 500,000 conservative households to protest
by cancelling Showtime.

2. Those wingnuts already cancelled ...
when Showtime showed the somewhat unflattering (re: historically accurate) Reagan mini series.

5. I know they are having F9/11
I was referring to the Reagan story that CBS pulled out of, I thought HBO showed that, not Showtime

6. My error.
But ShowTime had the Reagan thing, too. It is a far better package than HBO. The Sun Dance channel is great. (Also S.T. has WAY better boxing than HBO.)

7. PS: on the Reagan thing ....
I watched it, and for the life of me, do not think it could possibly be considered even mildly offensive to republicans. My impression was that they took a movie that was about as bland as cottage cheese, and used it simply to exercise their muscle in media control .... and to distract people from significant issues.

Michael Moore's films, on the other hand, provide a hot seat for this administration and the right wing. Glad S.T. features them all ....
