TELL THE F.E.C. TO PROSECUTE ABC/DISNEY FOR CAMPAIGN
FINANCE LAW VIOLATIONS
The perverse obstinance of ABC/Disney in plowing ahead
with their political hit piece on the Democratic
party, "The Path to 9/11", will likely not only subject
them to defamation suits from Bill Clinton himself, and
from his cabinet officials that they smeared, they
deserve to be prosecuted by the Federal Election
Commission (F.E.C.) for campaign finance law violations. And if
enough of us raise our voices, we can make it happen.
Although it was previewed only to hard core right wing
ideologues (even Clinton was refused a request for an
advance copy), enough has leaked out about its gross
distortions of fact and malicious bias for there to be
a mounting groundswell of condemnation of the planned
broadcast, and demands that it be pulled entirely.
Especially suspicious is the fact that the production,
with a reported cost of $40 million dollars, is to be
aired without commercials. And if that weren't bad
enough, they are coordinating with the White House to let
Bush give a speech right in the middle of the second
installment.
In other words, ABC/Disney is providing to their
extreme right wing pals a free, prime time, negative
campaign commercial of 6 hours intended to influence the
upcoming general election with less than 60 days to go.
There could not a more blatant or gross violation of
campaign advertising law. The production is so riddled
with deliberate partisan bias, it cannot be repaired or
redeemed. And most despicably of all, ABC/Disney is
promoting their conflation of heinous lies as "the
official true story".
