TV Guide Poll: Is it wrong of ABC to present a fictionalized version...
Is it wrong of ABC to present a fictionalized version of events in The Path to 9/11?

67% Yes. They should have stuck to the facts, rather than show political bias or mislead the public.

11% No. They have a right to shape the story to make it compelling.

20% I'm reserving judgment until I see it.

9. These polls are missing the point and that is that they are
advertising this farce as "based on facts" like the 9/11 commission report. If they had just advertised it as a work of fiction, I would just either watch it or not, but this is false advertising as far as I'm concerned.

30. They are doing that on purpose
its deliberate.

That way, RWers can frame it as a free speech issue.

19. Having that third option makes no sense. The question is general, not
specific. Why would seeing it change your mind as to whether ABC should/shouldn't present a fictionalized version of 9/11?

25. Why have the third option? To split the "Yes" response.
Edited on Sun Sep-10-06 03:52 PM by Raksha
Otherwise, they might have 87% of the people saying it's wrong! There are always some people who think they are being "fair-minded" only if they consider both sides, even when one side is telling the truth and the other side is lying.

This goes beyond "shaping the story to make it compelling."
