Laid Bare for All to See
The mainstream media lapdogs are trying so hard to prop up the official story of 9/11 that their duplicity and bias have been laid bare for all to see.
2 examples from this week:
- Time Magazine's piece entitled "Setting the Record Straight" is the single worst piece of 9/11 reporting I have ever seen. This 1-page story cheerily reports as "facts" things that even NIST and the 9/11 Commission have refuted. Oh well, that's reporting today in America.
- ABC is running a fake docudrama called "The Path to 9/11" which was written by an arch neoconservative. The Path to 9/11 is so inaccurate that even one of the commissioners from the 9/11 Whitewash Commission said it contained gross misrepresentations. This mocumentary is so bad, and ABC so eager to promote the neocon agenda, that ABC is apparently eating $30 million of its own money to run it without advertisers.
Perhaps these and other recent disinfo campaigns are so blatant that even the average American -- lulled to sleep by being spoon-fed the mush which passes for "news" by the likes of Katie Couric and Geraldo Riviera -- will start to smell something fishy.

We need to figure out a way
We need to figure out a way to turn these stories into an advantage.
Some points:
--they do publicize poor arguments and misinformation
--it is out in the open more than before
--beyond that, it is horrible journalism/disinformation
Just some thoughts:
--I wonder if a targeted boycott of one publication (say, Time) would send a message
--the media outlets of the so-called "left" are just as horrible as they ignore everything
--I write to them, maybe we all should
Here are a few (web and print) "progessive" media that are getting away with ignoring the facts:
The Nation, Counterpunch. Crooks and Liars, Truth Out, Truthdig, Anti-war, BuzzFlash, New York Review of Books, and many more
Anyone have any ideas about how to approach this?
contact them and let them
contact them and let them know how you feel. i get certain progressive magazines and i threaten to cancel all the time and sometimes do when they wont cover stories outside of the realm of "safe" CNN type bullshit. i got a survey from the DNC just yesterday and made it very clear i wont be giving them any money until they stop being so goddamn weak. the more of us that contact them the clearer the picture will become for them.
It might very well take more
It might very well take more than letter-writing campaigns as that never works with mainstream/government outlets, and is just as unlikely to work with alternative (left) outlets as well, as they are essentially government shills themselves, at least on the most important issues. It could take forms of non-violent Direct Action such as setting up "tent-cities" around the headquarters of certain publications like CNN or even The Nation.
Sit-ins, blockades, loudspeakers, marches do much more than writing letters that most likely get thrown out anyway. It's time to get our bodies involved. It's the only way left.
thats all well and good, and
thats all well and good, and i agree, but some of us have jobs and obligations we cant leave for extended periods of time to live in tent cities. if i had the money i would, im only 23 and in debt and i certaintly couldnt do something like that at this point. but thats just me.
GW, yes these really are
blatant examples of media propaganda, and I am hopeful that Americans are waking up in large numbers. Will it be enough? Time will tell.
Meanwhile, here's a new comprehensive article by Michel Chossudovsky about what's planned next in the Middle East:
The Next Phase of the Middle East War
9/11 plays a crucial and central role in the propaganda campaign.
The threat of an Al Qaeda "Attack on America" is being used profusely by the Bush administration and its indefectible British ally to galvanize public opinion in support of a global military agenda.
Revealing the lies behind 911 would serve to undermine the legitimacy of the "war on terrorism".
Without 911, the war criminals in high office do not have a leg to stand on. The entire national security construct collapses like a deck of cards.
Known and documented, the "Islamic terror network" is a creation of the US intelligence apparatus. Several of the terror alerts were based on fake intelligence as revealed in the recent foiled "liquid bomb attack". There is evidence that the several of the terrorist "mass casualty events" which have resulted in civilian casualties were triggered by the military and/or intelligence services. (e.g Bali 2002).
The "war on terrorism" is bogus. The 911 narrative as conveyed by the 911 Commission report is fabricated. The Bush administration is involved in acts of cover-up and complicity at the highest levels of government.

Good someone else saw it.
The show starts off "3,000 people died........" Debunkers always start off with the heart strings. Then when you ask them about 9/11 families in the Truth movement they never seem to have an answer for you.
Not sure if we have the
Not sure if we have the people or would be able to get the word out fast enough, but it looks like targeting just one or two media outlets would have a rel effect.
This gives focus, and if the effort can change just one of them, there would be considerable results.
I say let's choose one print (The Nation?) and one website (BuzzFlash? Truth Out?).
Would this be effective?
Can we get enough people involved?
Any ideas on this or some other angle?
The time is ripe as the anniversary is near and the elections just around the corner...
The Raw Story, which is
The Raw Story, which is otherwise excellent, is another one.
target media anchors
Those publications are already publishing 9/11 truth coverage every now and then, but what is missing is some prominent news anchor/journalist going on record to say he/she can't believe the 9/11 tale either, he thinks 9/11 truth is legitimate, he thinks the govt. has a lot of explaining to do what really happened.
But it would have to be one that is respected enough not to be immediately ridiculed and humiliated like Charlie Sheen.
A prominent news personality
A prominent news personality would be great, but don't hold your breath.
I may have listed one or two wrong, but it is not true that the "left" is putting out very much. Some are, but the ones mentioned above in this string are not, to the best of my knowledge.
These media are very important as many journos in the mainstream look to them and say, well, The Nation says nothing, Counterpunch says nothing, so why should I?
It's a serious issue. Turn one or two of these outlets, and the mainstream will begin to follow and it probably will not follow until one or two of these "lefty" ones change.
Yes, but eventually it has
Yes, but eventually it has to happen. One has toi become "the one", just like the two who exposed Watergate, one of the media has to become the MSM hero who challenged Bush on 9/11 - and won.
AmericaBlog
I suggest going after John Avarosis and his AmericaBlog site. Many truthers like me have been attacked and banned for posting there. John made it clear in an email exchange with me he would never post anything on "nutty" 9-11 Truth stories, but when 9-11 stories are posted, almost half the comments garee with us and complain about that site's 9-11 "policy". Avarosis's site is very effective when it wants to go after an issue like Microsoft going soft on gay rights. They need to see the light.
Did anyone see the Nova Special last night
It's absurd how they present these things. The title was something along the lines of "How the Towers fell". They spent about 15 minutes on the Towers total and of those 15 mintues only about 5 were on the collapse itself. All the information centered around the NIST report. The rest of the show was about stairwell safety and new building codes. Of course WTC7 was not brought up.
didn't see it but
did catch 9-11:toxic legacy on one of the Discovery channels, which interviewed several first responders about all the health problems, talked about several of the deceased ones and their families and had Hillary Clinton in it talking about how she has pushed for medical coverage/help for all these people (looks like she's doing a great job - not). it also talked about the lies of EPA chief Whitman although it failed to mention she got her orders from higher up, basically making her the scapegoat.
it made my blood boil to see all these people needing help and nobody doing anything substantial, hell, even some of the doctors were reported as saying there is nothing wrong with these people (like the gov't doctors telling soldiers that depleted uranium is completely safe).
how do these people get away with it?

9/11 Discussion Guide for ABC Miniseries
On September 11, 2001, terrorists hijacked four commercial airplanes, resulting in the deaths of nearly 3,000 people. They crashed the planes into the World Trade Center towers in New York City; the Pentagon in Arlington County, Virginia (outside Washington, D.C.); and a field in Pennsylvania. The world was changed forever.
Dear Teachers,
The tragic events of September 11, 2001, challenged the core of our humanity. The impact was felt across the world.
Americans have only begun to comprehend the national and global implications of 9/11. As a global community we try to make sense of what happened and why, and how it could have occurred. We rely on eyewitness accounts, the media, and personal dialogue for answers.
On the fifth anniversary of 9/11, The Path to 9/11 (an ABC miniseries that details the historical events leading up to 9/11, beginning with the 1993 World Trade Center bombing) will air as a nationwide broadcast. This dramatization of events is based on The 9/11 Commission Report, published in July 2004. Created by Congress and President Bush, the 9/11 Commission was a bipartisan group charged with providing an account of the events surrounding 9/11 and recommendations for preventing future attacks.
The Path to 9/11 offers your students and their families important information regarding the causes of and events leading to that tragic day. Encourage your students and their families to watch The Path to 9/11 and use the accompanying Resources and Discussion Guide pages to:
Track the historical time line of events before, during, and after 9/11
Lead critical discussions about these events
Use critical-thinking skills and analysis in classroom debate
It is important to look back over the past five years and consider the events that have occurred, what led to those events, and how they impact the future of our nation and the world.
Objectives:
To encourage students to gain a global understanding of communities and cultures
To engage critical-thinking and critical-viewing skills
To encourage student political awareness and involvement through discussion and debate
To promote media literacy to remind students to view what they absorb from the media with a critical eye
Materials:
Resource Sheets and Discussion Guide: Easily downloadable PDFs within this site!
Set Up And Prepare:

ABC-Sponsored teaching materials falsely suggest Iraq had WMD, link War in Iraq to 9/11
Using Scholastic, ABC Peddles False Information to School Kids Based on Flawed, Partisan "9-11 Docu-drama"
September 6, 2006 (Washington, DC) - Media Matters for America has found ABC is "generously sponsor[ing]" high school teaching materials in connection with its "docu-drama" the Path to 9/11 that leave out key information, resulting in a distorted account of pre-Iraq War WMD claims, and falsely link the war in Iraq to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
"By pushing material with misleading information to students of all ages, ABC and Scholastic are engaging in the worst kind of political propagandizing and misinformation campaign," said Media Matters President and CEO David Brock. "It appears they are actively misinform our children on recent historical events that have shaped our world. Such behavior from a major network like ABC is not only unprecedented; it is highly inappropriate and deeply troubling."
Scholastic Inc., which describes itself as "the global children's publishing, education and media company," is reaching out to more than 100,000 high school teachers around the country in an effort to publicize the ABC miniseries "The Path to 9-11." Scholastic is not only urging teachers to discuss and debate the events leading up to the terrorist attacks on September 11, but is also providing them with multiple "resource sheets" which contain misleading information about the Iraq war.
A Scholastic/ABC document titled "Student Resource Sheet 1" says of Iraq, "The dictatorial government of Saddam Hussein was overthrown in 2003, following an invasion led by the United States. The U.S. government believed that Hussein had been developing weapons of mass destruction that he planned to use against American and other targets."
The "Student Resource Sheet" omits any mention of two crucial facts: We now know Iraq did not have weapons of mass destruction, and there is a voluminous and growing body of evidence that indicates that the Bush administration knew its claims about weapons of mass destruction were unsupported, as Media Matters has documented here, here, and here.
The "Student Resource Sheet" also seems to link the war in Iraq to the 9/11 terrorist attacks: "Following the terrorist attacks on September 11, the United States began a global "War on Terror" to stop terrorist groups and state-sponsored terrorism. President Bush has led the United States into Afghanistan and Iraq and reorganized the national government in an attempt to combat terrorist activity."
The controversial ABC miniseries "The Path to 9/11," is also under heavy criticism for pushing false, misleading and overtly political misinformation about the factors leading to the 9/11 attacks from officials closely tied with the 9/11 Commission Report and current and previous administrations.

ABC Has Lost Me As a Viewer
ABC and Disney are insulting the memories of people killed in the 911 attacks by exploiting their deaths in a deceptive piece of propaganda. I will never watch ABC again if they broadcast this unpatriotic nonsense.
Does a major national
Does a major national broadcast network want to stain itself by presenting an irresponsible, slanderous, fraudulent, "docu-drama" to the American public?
Not if you and I have the last word -- but either way, we're about to find out.
The ABC television network -- a cog in the Walt Disney empire -- unleashed a promotional blitz in the last week for a new "docudrama" called "The Path to 9/11". ABC has thrown its corporate might behind the two-night production, and bills it as a public service: a TV event, to quote the ABC tagline, "based on the 9/11 Commission Report".
That's false. "The Path to 9/11" is actually a bald-faced attempt to slander Democrats and revise history right before Americans vote in a major election.
The miniseries, which was put together by right-wing conservative writers, relies on the old GOP playbook of using terrorism to scare Americans. "The Path to 9/11" mocks the truth and dishonors the memory of 9/11 victims to serve a cheap, callous political agenda. It irresponsibly misrepresents the facts and completely distorts the truth.
ABC/Disney executives need to hear from the public and understand that their abuse of the public trust comes with a cost. Tell Walt Disney CEO Robert Iger to keep this right-wing propaganda off the air -- we'll deliver your message:
http://www.democrats.org/pathto911
This story is breaking quickly. The bias of the "docudrama" only became known when ABC began circulating previews recently. Less than two weeks ago, 9/11 Commission member Richard Ben-Veniste confronted a lead writer of "The Path to 9/11" after watching the first half of the miniseries at a screening, but most of what we know amounts to bits and pieces because ABC chose to screen the miniseries to conservative bloggers and right-wing media outlets exclusively. Almost none of the Democrats portrayed in the film have even been asked for their thoughts.
But we still know enough, thanks to news accounts and crack research, to fact check "The Path to 9/11" as a biased, irresponsible mess. Here's what you need to know:
Richard Clarke -- the counterterrorism czar for the Clinton administration, now himself a consultant to ABC News -- describes a key scene in "The Path to 9/11" as "180 degrees from what happened." In the scene, a CIA field agent places a phone call to get the go ahead to kill Osama Bin Laden, then in his sights, only to have a senior Clinton administration official refuse and hang up the phone. Sandy Berger, President Clinton's National Security Advisor, called the same scene "a total fabrication. It did not happen." And Roger Cressey, a top Bush and Clinton counterterrorism official, said it was "something straight out of Disney and fantasyland. It's factually wrong. And that's shameful."
Another scene revives the old right-wing myth that press reporting made it impossible to track Osama bin Laden, accusing the Washington Post of blowing the secret that American intelligence tracked his satellite phone calls. In reality, responsibility for that blunder -- contrary to "The Path to 9/11" -- rests with none other than the arch-conservative Washington Times.
The former National Security Council head of counterterrorism says that President Clinton "approved every request made of him by the CIA and the U.S. military involving using force against bin Laden and al-Qaeda," and the 9/11 report says the CIA had full authority from President Clinton to strike Bin Laden. Yet chief "Path to 9/11" scriptwriter Cyrus Nowrasteh, a friend of Rush Limbaugh, says the miniseries shows how President Clinton had "frequent opportunities in the '90s to stop Bin Laden in his tracks -- but lacked the will to do so."
ABC asked only the Republican co-chair of the 9/11 Commission, Tom Kean, Sr., to advise the makers of "The Path to 9/11". The producers optioned two books, one written by a Bush administration political appointee, as the basis of the screenplay -- yet bill the miniseries as "based on the 9/11 Commission Report."
This is a picture of bias -- a conservative attempt to rewrite the history of September 11 to blame Democrats, just in time for the election.
Tell Walt Disney president Robert Iger that you hold his company responsible -- and that this community demands that ABC tell the truth:
http://www.democrats.org/pathto911
ABC is trying to use of the airwaves -- airwaves owned by you and me, and loaned to broadcasters as a public trust -- to slander Democrats and sell a slanderous, irresponsible fraud to the American people, and they're shamefully doing it just weeks away from Election Day.
The Walt Disney Corporation could have given Americans an honest look at September 11. Instead, the company abandoned its duty to the truth -- and embraced the fiction known as "The Path to 9/11."
But ABC isn't the only company pushing this gross revision of history. ABC has enlisted the reputable education and children's entertainment company Scholastic, Inc. to send 100,000 letters to high school teachers, urging them to show students "The Path to 9/11". Scholastic has also created a discussion guide for teachers to use to encourage students and their families to watch this irresponsible fraud and then discuss it in school. The discussion guide does not in any way point out the concerns and criticisms that have been raised about the validity and accuracy of the film.
We've got to stop this now.
ABC/Disney must face an accountability moment. You can ratchet up the pressure on ABC by sending your own letter to Walt Disney CEO Robert Iger -- tell him to keep this propaganda off their air.

Not even WTC7 is mentioned
I watched the ABC's mocudrama here in Australia last night and I have watched till the end for one thing. That was WTC7. They DID NOT mention WTC7 at all let alone talking about explosion sounds. But one thing was interesting. One of the survivors said that after the collapse of the first tower the thick cloud that engulfed them was "very, very hot". Now here is a question to think about: If a building collapses on itself what is the likelihood that the debri cloud be VERY HOT???

From Prisonplanet...citing from the whitehouse site itself.
Among other things, we're all falling under the label of "terrorist"...
The terrorism we confront today springs from:
Subcultures of conspiracy and misinformation. Terrorists recruit more effectively from populations whose information about the world is contaminated by falsehoods and corrupted by conspiracy theories. The distortions keep alive grievances and filter out facts that would challenge popular prejudices and self-serving propaganda.
An ideology that justifies murder. Terrorism ultimately depends upon the appeal of an ideology that excuses or even glorifies the deliberate killing of innocents. Islam has been twisted and made to serve an evil end, as in other times and places other religions have been similarly abused.

I also read the rubbish Time magazine piece - I hope that many people see it for the blatant disinfo that it is. It's a real sign of the momentum of the 9/11 truth movement that they have to hype their hit piece on the front cover of the mag for maximum impact.
For viewers in Australia, I note that George Negus (on his TV show FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT) last night interviewed the Italian female author of TERROR INC., and also an African-American terror 'expert' (ex US-sniper) live in the studio, the latter introduced as having 'personally witnessed' the plane hitting the Pentagon. The latter guy stressed throughout his piece how Osama Bin Laden had been the 'A#1' target of the US throughout the 90's, and 'under the surface', i.e behind the scenes, despite appearances to the contrary, the US had been moving heaven and earth to get him. I guess someone should have informed the CIA staff that visited OBL in hospital prior to the attacks. Anyone that has read Chossudovsky or Peter Dale Scott knows that 'official story' argument is absolute bullshit.

Here's some pure drivel from Time:
I guess all those countless billions of dollars spent on RADAR technology don't amount to much, since it can be beaten by simply turning off your transponder. Obviously, no one in the FAA or military had ever thought about the possibility of an aircraft switching off, or distorting, its transponder in order to evade air defenses. Thank you for clearing that up for me, Coco Masters at Time Magazine!
God, I must've lost at least 5 points on my IQ just for reading that horseshit! In fact, I think I degraded the use of the word "drivel", since something pertaining to drool is much more respectable than this PoS.

9/11 Baiting Campaign
The recent spate of debunking articles in the media is part of a campaign to "bait" the 9/11 truth movement and pull the debate in the direction of the physical evidence, particularly the towers. Because we have very little evidence to work with, this is the area where the regime has a distinctive advantage.
Note that the media shy away from talking about the timeline anomalies, the war games, and other areas that cannot be finessed with its phalanx of tax-paid "experts."
The media stories are a diversion! Yet, like flies drawn to cowpies, many in the 9/11 truth movement are drawn to the towers, and expend their time and energy in futile arguments pitting one group of "experts" against another group. Sorry to say, the media debunking campaign is working beautifully because it absorbs the attention of the public and the 9/11 community and directs it toward a debate where subtly sarcastic articles and snide remarks make the 9/11 truth movement look like a bunch of "nutty conspiracy theorists" to Joe and Jane Sixpack, who tend to believe the government, anyway.
There is no need to argue about how the towers were brought down, because OUR CASE IS ALREADY MADE on the strength of circumstantial evidence. 9/11 researchers have already poked countless holes in the story. Instead of being drawn into a debate about the physical evidence, we should be demanding answers about things like (1) the timeline that doesn't hold water no matter how many times they change it, (2) the lie-infested 9/11 Commission report, and (3) the six war games on the morning of 9/11. These are some of the things that the regime doesn't want us to ask about, and that is why they do everything to keep us focused on the towers. The movement has to stop chasing this red herring and ask about the evidence which already shows that Bush is lying.
