The Mouse That Revised


The Disney Corporation is under considerable pressure from Democratic leaders and the big liberal blogs to revise or cancel a revisionist history miniseries about September 11 scheduled to air this coming Sunday and Monday.
The New York Times around noon posted an Associated Press report that a letter of protest alleging defamation was sent to Disney CEO Rober Iger by Madeleine Albright, Sandy Berger, Bruce Lindsey and Douglas Band earlier this week and quotes a Clinton Foundation spokesperson:

ABC/Disney acknowledges this show is fiction and in direct contradiction of the 9-11 commission report…it is despicable that ABC/Disney would insist on airing a fictional version…No reputable organization should dramatize 9-11 for a profit at the expense of the truth.

The ABC affiliate in my corner of the enchanted forest is WCPO-TV9.
This is a fine station with a rich local history and a tradition of local news excellence.
I watch their newscasts on a fairly regular basis.
I called WCPO this morning to politely ask that they separate their tradition of accurate new reporting from their current network’s truthy and pro Bush spin-packed 911 miniseries.
If you feel so inclined call WCPO-TV at 513-721-9900.
