A discussion about the airline industry, airline employees, and all things related

The Disney/ABC television program, The Path to 9/11, which began airing last night is inaccurate and irresponsible in its portrayal of the airport check-in events that occurred on the morning of September 11, 2001. Viewers are left to believe AA employees could have prevented this tragedy. That's simply not true and a disgraceful way to mark the 5th anniversary of one of the darkest days in American history.

I wish the writers and producers of this "docu-drama" would have brushed up on the facts. It is horrifying to me that they could have the audacity to actually imply blame?!!! And what gets me is that they wouldn't have to do much research to get the facts straight! It's as easy as a Google search. A factual description of those events can be found in the official government edition of the 9/11 Commission Report or clearly in this Boston Globe story, http://www.boston.com/news/packages/underattack/globe_stories/0916/Reliving_the_morning_of_death+.shtml

One of many reasons I forgo watching the "docudrama". Thanks for the comment.

It's highly irresponible of them especially when a 9/11 commissioner was helping them with the show.

Let's just hope they dont distribute it to schools like they said they would.
