He was to be portrayed in a light his critics have always tried to put him in. That he is stupid, confused, racist, and uncaring. I wonder how the same people who have reacted if they included a story about Bill Clinton which included the rape allegations or that Vince Foster was murdered, which was produced by Charlton Heston and Rush Limbaugh? There is at least SOME who claim that those events happened. From what I gather they didn't even interview any of the Reagans or staff members who worked with R.R..

Great point. The idea that anything goes in a movie is bogus when the movie is heralded as some sort of quasi documentary expose. I don't agree with cencorship, but CBS has to make the best decision for the company.
