John Cory's article: Clowns and Harlots and let's all do what he suggested during the airing of "Path to 9/11" come 9/10 & 9/11--leave your televisions off and light a candle & hold a vigil for all 9/11 victims. If you can't leave the television off, watch other programs instead of "Path to 9/11"--BOYCOTT, BOYCOTT, BOYCOTT! Make this fauxudrama the lowest rated mini-series in television history!

2. Ratings will be driven by Neilsen polling . . .
(and whatever competitors in the polling biz are out there these days). And with no advertisers (who get some feedback, presumably) there's no way we can influence the ratings by watching or not. If you know people who ARE part of a ratings system, though . . .

Myself I'm not going to watch because it's simply not interesting enough to bother. The ONLY thing that's interesting is the (apparent) fact that it's a right-wing hit piece and that has stirred up substantial blogospheric and media interest. I.e., it's interesting because it's interesting, which has never been an especially compelling reason for watching something, IMO.
