The next time someone tries to tell you that the MSM is committed to telling the truth and that they are not biased, remind them of the ABC movie Path to 9/11. The movie is a factual account of the Clinton years that show some of the inadequacies of his administration and the way his inaction led to the 9/11 attacks. The truths in this movie have been spelled out in other publications in the past but now that a movie is going to air the Democrats have come unhinged.
ABC has decided, because of Democratic pressure, to alter the movie a bit. They are making changes solely on the words of Democrats. They took the word of a national security threat named Sandy Berger over others involved in the movie. Berger, as you will recall, was caught stealing classified documents from the National Archives and then putting other documents in the Archives. ABC has decided that the words of the Democrats have more merit than the words of the people involved in the movie without a shred of evidence to refute the claims made in the film. If ABC were interested in the truth they would have made the Democrats offer proof of their claims and not just taken their word on it.
Imagine, if you will, a movie about the failings of the Bush administration. If any members of the administration protested to ABC do you really think ABC would change the content? Of course they would not but they are doing that to save their hero Bill Clinton. This smacks of media bias and ABC should be taken to task for their decision. I urge everyone to go to their website and fill out a comment and send it to them. They must realize that they are offending the Conservative base by bowing to the pressures exerted by the Democrats.
This is an unfortunate but all too obvious attempt by ABC to march in lock step with the Democrats who run the media. This is no different than the networks calling Florida in the 2000 election for Gore on the request of the Democrats even though the polls had not closed. ABC is once again demonstrating why Fox is well respected in the industry.
