We Are Now Officially Living In A Fascist State

Unless you've been living in a cave for the past week, you undoubtedly know that ABC is planning to air a mini-series called "The Path To 9/11" wherein the Clinton Administration will be blamed for allowing the 9-11 attacks and the Bush Regime will get a complete pass, even though Bush was warned one month before the attacks that bin Laden was "determined to strike the U.S." and yet he did nothing in response.

Well, it now appears that no sponsor is willing to get anywhere near this piece of propaganda (from Variety Magazine via Think Progress):

ABC has decided the best sponsor for its upcoming Sept. 11 mini is no sponsor at all.

After originally announcing its intention to air "The Path to 9/11" with limited commercial interruption, the network now will air both parts of the $30 million Harvey Keitel starrer without any advertising.

What's more, the Alphabet will potentially limit its backend profits by allowing consumers to download the complete miniseries -- for free -- via Apple's iTunes Music Store. Mini also will be streamed for free via ABC.com, and XM Radio has pacted with the network to make an audiocast of the film available to its subscribers.

ABC Entertainment prexy Steve McPherson said the commercial-free strategy was the most appropriate route to take with this project.

"We looked at different scenarios (and) talked to possible (advertising) partners, and none of it made sense," McPherson said. "This is the most respectful way to present this."

I suspect that "none of it made sense" because nobody wanted any part of ABC's fascist bullshit.
