ABC: A dramatization of… A dramatization of… Of… LIES!
ABC has hired a specilist to handle The Path to 9/11 flap.

ABC initially described the movie as a “dramatization of events…” Notice the word events. That’s the key.

When word got out that the movie was little more than a political hit piece, intended to support the Corporate Media’s very profitable yet nonsensical version of 9/11, ABC tasked a professional liar with making the word events disappear.

So, how did he accomplish this? Well, in (re-)describing the movie, ABC’s professional liar started off with same language, but replaced the word events with a red herring. Instead of indicating what events have been dramatized, the liar makes claims about the sources from which the dramatization was drawn.

ABC's liar actually claims that the 9/11 Commission Report is a "source" not of facts or information, but of "dramatization." Right up there with the Hardy Boys. Who knew?

This, of course, leaves us to ask, “What exactly is being dramatized here?”

Answer: A lie.


The original ABC lie:

ABC will present "The Path to 9/11," a dramatization of the events detailed in The 9/11 Commission Report and other sources, in an epic miniseries event that will air with limited commercial interruption.

The latest ABC lie:

The Path to 9/11 is a dramatization, not a documentary, drawn from a variety of sources, including the 9/11 Commission report, other published materials and personal interviews.

2. Core message: 9/11 is Bill Clinton's sole fault. (as the US side goes)
That's disgusting IMHO, but that's the whole theory beside this "docudrama".

3. Just come out and say it
9/11 happened because Clinton got a blow job.

We don't need to sit through 5 hours of crap. Just say that and be done.
