ABC tinkers with 9/11 drama

To date I see three things that give me pause about the film:

1. ABC refuses to defend itself against the specific charges by offering evidence those scenes actually occurred. Everyone who has talked about the scenes says they didn't happen or they believe the participants who say they didn't happen. No one with any credence, including the 9-11 Commission Report, apparently says they did happen.

2. Scholastic pulled out, or rather pulled back. Their materials are, apparently, no longer about what this tells us about 9-11. Rather the focus is on how to critically analysed media materials.

3. The film's producers only included Kean as an advisor. Why not Hamilton, to make certain you had a Rep and a Dem, however respected each is? And Kean seems to have played a very passive role and is now simply trying to preserve his reputation.

Re 1 - Good point, but than they did edit or remove some of the controversial scenes.

Re 2 and 3 - I don't see either as that big of deal.
