ABC’s Undocu-Drama Airs With Few ChangesPosted on Sep 11, 2006In spite of (or perhaps because of) all the heat and negative publicity, ABC/Disney ran the first half of its fictionalized “The Path to 9/11” miniseries last night. It trimmed perhaps a minute off the original cut, but left in most of the flagrantly fictional parts. (Looks like netroots aren’t all-powerful, after all...)

Three thoughts come to mind:
1) Even Fox’s entetainment division that gives us the lowest, most disgusting crap (who gave us “reality TV”?) wouldn’t show this tripe! However, Fox/News (aka Fox/Pravda) would show it in a New York minute!
2) Imagined scene:
“Hey, Mad as Hell. Now that you’ve won the US Open, what are you going to do?”
“I’m goin’ to NOT go to Disney World!”
3) How many twits actually watched this slanderous hunk of propaganda?

S’long ABC. Be sure to report to your advertisers you have one fewer viewer so you can reduce your advertising rates accordingly.
I know the loss of just little old me ain’t nothing to worry about. But multiply “me” by a few million… and guess what? YOU’RE OUT OF BUSINESS… not that that would be any big loss… 95% of what ABC broadcasts is useless, mindless pap not worth the effort to produce with a result not suitable for human consumption.

ernie kovachs said of tv; they call it a medium because it is neither rare nor well done.

I guess tonight’s conclusion will document Saddam Hussein’s role in Al Queda and 9/11.
They must have cut-out the part where Bush senior could have taken out Hussein. That would have been really entertaining.
