Disney's Dubious Path to 9/11

[Alex]

I didn't say it was my view that people who get upset about representations of history in movies is "teh dummer" just that this was pretty much the consensus view here earlier this summer (when I was the one arguing against it).

I make no point that it doesn't matter. Everything matters from a historical point of view. An ABC docudrama that will be watched by 12 million people (and discounted out of hand by half of them) doesn't matter a whole lot but of course it matters. And the historical errors should be corrected.

My point isn't that history isn't important but rather that "blame" is not a historical concept. "Blame" is a personal subjective concept. "Blame" whoever the hell you want because even if everybody agrees 100% on what physically transpired each individual will be able to assign "blame" differently and support it to their own satisfaction with the facts on hand.
