Our local ABC affiliate is listening.
Right now it is the top story at this fine site:

http://www.bluegrassroots.org/

BTW, WTVQ has been very good about giving fair coverage to anti war and environmental events.


I just spoke with the General Manager of WTVQ. While he said that he does not have the power to pull the movie, he did seem open to the suggestion of WTVQ putting an additional disclaimer to it. Particularly a disclaimer saying that while ABC claims that the movie is "based on the 9/11 Commission", it invents scenes that directly contradict its findings and the co-chair of the 9/11 Commission says it is full of dishonesty. He said he would discuss that idea with his staff.

2. The guy that runs the site is a pretty dynamic fellow.
He's one of the youngest members of our county executive committee. He's a trustworthy fellow.

5. Maybe All The Local ABC Affiliates Should Do This So They're Protected
from a wave of lawsuits?
