New Disney film about 9/11 is sure to please Bush

New Accusations Arise About ABC and Disney Misleading U.S. Television Viewers About 9/11 During Run-Up to Midterm Elections; U.S. Politics Today Offers Extended Coverage


WASHINGTON, September 7 -- Scheduled to be aired on September 10 and 11, ABC's "docudrama" about the Sept. 11 attacks has come under severe criticism by terrorism experts and a member of the 9-11 commission.

Many reports have shown that the miniseries is ripe with conservative propaganda, largely ignores Bush administration failures and misrepresents Clinton's counterterrorism policies, such as in made-up scenes depicting Clinton officials as undermining attempts to kill Osama bin Laden.

In another telling example, the series claims that the Washington Post ruined a valuable form of surveillance of bin Laden by disclosing that the U.S. was monitoring his cell phone calls, an accusation actually made by a different paper, the conservative Washington Times.

U.S. Politics Today, a non-partisan news service for political professionals, offers extended news coverage of this hot topic. See:

my ears

Well, a week ago I had an ear ache in my left ear... out of nowhere. I woke up and there it was. I hadn't been to anything loud in at least 3 days.

Then this past weekend voices started sounding funny. I could hear people fine but low frequencies had an electric kind of sound to it...

And now I can't hear bass at all out of my left ear and have a hum. A week after it started.

So I'm about to head to the death center here at BSU.

I hope I haveen't suffered anything permanent.

Think about what I do in my free time:
DJing (about 70 times so far in 2006)
Concert Photography (I've shot probably a dozen shows in the past few months... and photo pits are usually right in front of the stage, right in front of the monitors).

*crosses fingers*

.... either way I'm buying some nice ear plugs. I just bought new headphones to replace my sucky ones (they don't filter out other noise, so I have to turn them up higher).
