Path to 911 Blog Returns

Path to 911 BlogThe blog for ABC's extremely controversial and erroneous Path to 911 miniseries has returned (thx Think Progress). The blog was removed earlier this week when it was barraged with complaints about the numerous factual errors contained in the film. The film is being called a propaganda film for the Bush administration because of the film's links to a right-wing network. A post on Media Cynic explains some of the many falsehoods contained in the film and notes the film's financing came from extremist sources.
After watching all the video clips, I was struck by how ridiculous a lot of the dialogue is. It has quite a hysterical tone to it. But that's not surprising, considering the writer/director is a leader in an extreme right wing evangelical network. The financing for the film also came from extremist sources which want a theocracy in the United States. Basically, they're Swift Boat-ing Bill Clinton and his cabinet.
The Path to 911 blog hasn't been updated since September 2nd but it is back online and appears to be taking new comments. Blogs have also launched like the Open Letter to ABC: Don't Airbrush 9/11, which are highly critical of the film. Other bloggers are planning an ABC/Disney boycott if ABC airs the docudrama, which seems very likely. Despite the ongoing controversy ABC is planning on airing The Path to 9/11 tonight with few edits.
