The thread isn't about the content of the movie. It's about the media's coverage in regard to all things 9/11 related.

As I posted: "Is it too soon? Too traumatic? Exploitative?" These were the aspects being discussed by the media in relation to the movie.

IMO the media has gotten a pass on their 9/11 coverage. Lared's comment was a good example as he equated criticism of the media with truther nonsense. I don't know why anyone would defend 60 Minutes' reporting.

The media is just doing it's job zeemike Feb 2012 #1
