Clinton Foundation: Despite edits, "Path to 9/11" misrepresents truth

BBC: 'Fiction over fact' in 9/11 show


The two-part drama ties in with the fifth anniversary of the attacks

The first part of a controversial series on the 11 September attacks was misrepresentative despite being re-edited, the Clinton Foundation says....

The Clinton Foundation - a charitable organisation set up by Mr Clinton - said ABC had received warnings "from members of the 9/11 Commission, 9/11 family members and public officials from across the political spectrum" about supposed inaccuracies.

"Their claims of edits notwithstanding, The Path to 9/11 had Clinton administration officials saying things they did not say and doing things they did not do," claimed spokesman Jay Carson in a statement.

"Many of these scenes are directly contradicted by the 9/11 Commission Report. The American public deserved better."

2. Is the film being shown on th BBC?

If the Clinton Team is planning to sue, British Courts might be a more powerful venue, if memory serves. I used to know about this during the trial involving that Holocaust denier. If memory serves the British courts favor the plaintiff (on Slandar and Defemation issues) the way our courts favor the defendent.

4. What's the defamation standard for public figures? If you knew it was a

lie, it's defamation?

I wonder if Clinton's people are getting ready to sue ABC?

I think a real test of whether ABC knows PT911 is false is if it's showing in the UK. In the UK, people are liabel for defamation even if they don't know whether it's true and they're repeating something that's untrue.
