These two shows have lots in common. Lots was made up about 'The Reagans' and it was rightfully pulled. Lots of scenes and 'information' was made up for this pseudo-documentary but it has yet to be pulled.
Noone tried to build a lesson plan for school children around 'The Reagans'. ABC, this trash's producers, and Scholastic intended to use it for educational material. Not fictional entertainment as it really is.
Considering we spent millions and years studying the whole 9/11 issue. And even released a comprehensive report about it. That the writer/producer couldn't even stick to that. That they roundly blame Clinton but don't even show Bush sit in a chair like a corpse for minutes after being told about the attack.
It's less than two months until the mid term elections. And whatever perception about Clinton the public may garner from this will translate to national office democrats across the board. It's not censorship. It's preventing unfair campaign practices.
I think if they do air it, the Democrats should go after their broadcast license.
And no, I am not a fan of Clinton whatsoever. Mistakes were made across the board. BushII made plenty himself. But for some reason they are absent from this hack job. It's an attempt to lay everything at Clinton's feet. Fault reaches back decades to Bush I, Reagan, Carter, Ford and Nixon at the least.
Why were right wing bloggers and Rush Limbaugh allowed to pre-screen the movie, but Clinton and Richard Clarke not?
That alone shows the agenda behind it.
Why don't we just let ABC greenlight a docudrama written by Sean Hannity about the various democratic senate candidates currently polling ahead of Republican incumbents.
A shot of Casey snorting coke. Tester fondling a 6 year old child. Lamont beating his wife. Sherrod Brown lovingly caressing his lifesized doll of Adolph Hitler and Mrs. McCaskill cheating on her husband.
Why censor it?
