24. "True Lies" is actually media criticism, written by the producers of
GNN TV. http://www.gnn.tv/

I haven't read all of it. One chapter, called "The Road to
Shanksville" recounts their own independent trip to the site of the
downing of flight 93. Another chapter is called "Selling September
11." The Forward was written by Greg Palast.

Important points from "Shanksville":

1. There was no fuel in the groundwater at the crash site, nor did
the crash set off a grass fire.

2. A MSM reporter from Philadelphia who did an independent
investigation explains the news media's hostility to the "shot down"
hypothesis by pointing out that they are so fond of the "let's roll"
story just the way it is that they don't want to see it challenged or
altered no matter what the facts are.

3. The writers interviewed someone who was reputed to have claimed he
saw the plane shot down but who, after spending all day with the FBI,
changed his story. In this interview the witness simply blandly
recounted the official story, with frequent breaks to have whispered
conversations with his wife.
