This network TV tripe will probably not get pulled: ABC is owned by Disney, and they refused to distribute, via Miramax, Fahrenheit 9/11.
Uncle Walt, of course, was a reactionary conservative in his day, if not pro fascist, and his legacy, one of phony nostalgic "family fun" and simulacra sanitized snow white, seems to extend to all areas of the media giant. Liberal Hollywood, indeed.
This is, of course, their right to do so, but to claim that this shit is "True" is nothing more than the "Triumph of the Swill", an election year attempt to pin the whole thing on Clinton. Funny, isn't it, that all of this coincides with BushCo's "new" spin on the mess that helped create. Equally funny is how the advance copies were distributed to all company men.
According to Salon.com's editor, its worse than that. Nice...a five hour campaign commercial for the GOP.
