THE REVISIONIST HISTORY CHANNEL
“Just received this today in reply to my shot at the History Channel over their screening of Loose Change,” emails Doug Cox. “There’s something about bad spelling ...”
Dear Doug
Thankyou for your feedback.
Like all television networks The History Channel broadcasts conspiracy theory programming from series like ‘The Men Who Killed Kennedy’ to programmes like ‘Conspiracy Theory: Did We Land On The Moon? and the BBC series ‘The Power of Nightmares’ all of which present controversial theories relating to history.
Whilst no single representation of History is truely accurate the viewer needs to be given the opportunity to view all arguements in order to be able to begin to create their own opinion even if this serves to debunk a theory presented.
The majority of our 9/11 programming actually focused on the heroic actions of all involved in the events of September 11 2001.
Regards,
The History Channel
