In "The Path to 9/11," ABC has included scenes which are outright fabrications - all of them casting Democrats in a bad light.
Why not include scenes casting both parties in a good light, or Republicans in a bad light?
Because ABC is not Fair and Balanced, like Fox - that's why.
By openly lying about events in the years preceding the attacks, ABC has demonstrated political bias. It's no small coincidence that this is happening in an election year.
It's an excellent strategy, one used by propagandists for many years. By cloaking this politicized statement in the guise of "historical fiction", ABC is not required to air opposing viewpoints. In addition, many people will believe this "fiction" to be fact, especially if its false premises are re-enforced by politicized statements under similar guises, such as "entertainment", or "talk show".
