===Examples of Bipartisan Hypocrisy===
From "Variety":
....Criticism of "The Path to 9/11" carries strong echoes of the barbs hurled
at CBS over "The Reagans." Reagan partisans railed against scenes showing
Nancy Reagan consulting an astrologist and Reagan condemning AIDS victims.
Conservative drumbeat against "The Reagans" started months before the mini
was slated to air and intensified after a copy of the script was leaked. Eye
ultimately decided to sell the project to sister company Showtime -- a move
that, *ironically*, prompted howls of protest from liberal groups who
accused CBS of censorship.
Cliff Kincaid, editor of publications for conservative watchdog group
Accuracy in Media, said the Democratic outcry is a bit of a surprise.
"Usually Democrats can count on the support of big media in Hollywood," he
said. "It's like things are upside down now."
===I say to the Libs, just let the miniseries air, after all, lefty,
Oscar-winning film director Paul Haggis is producing the official Richard
Clarke approved mini-series of events leading up to and after 9/11.
