ABC Appeasement?
Fox News
ABC changed several scenes in Monday night's miniseries "Path to 9/11" to appease former Clinton officials, who called it unfairly critical of their failure to kill or capture Usama bin Laden.
The network shortened several events officials say never happened, removed a reference to impeachment and cut two scenes linking Clinton's indecision on bin Laden to his preoccupation with the Lewinsky scandal. It also added three disclaimers making clear that the film "fictionalized" certain events.
But all that still wasn't enough to please former President Clinton. A spokesman called the scenes involving Clinton officials, "utterly and completely false," saying, "ABC regrettably decided not to tell the truth."
