Months after ABC aired the controversial mini-series, ‘Path to 9/11’ Fox News has decided to air a 2 ½ minute segment of the film that was cut out before it was broadcast last September. After Democrats and aids to President Clinton demanded that certain changes be made to the mini-series, many people wondered what exactly they weren’t allowed to see.
Fox news plans to air the brief clip as part of a 15-minute segment during ‘Hannity’s America’, which will air on the network this Sunday night. Reuters stated that Fox News obtained the footage during a screening of the film that took place last January. ‘Path’s’ writer and producer, Cyrus Nowrasteh screened the movie at California State University, Channel Islands in Camarillo. He explained his side of the story and the press was permitted to record the speech as well as the video.
The senior producer of ‘Hannity’s America,’ John Finley said, "I think that because of the very public discussion about the movie before it aired and all of the very public objections raised by the members of the Clinton administration, that the American people deserve the chance to see what it is they were objecting to and see the whole thing before it was edited.”
Though ABC declined to comment, Reuters said they reiterated their statement that the miniseries is a dramatization and that the movie did contain fictional scenes.
‘Hannity’s America’ will air Sunday night at 9 p.m. on Fox News.
