The Great 2006 Google/Technorati 9-11 movie info bomb!
To counteract the effects the ABC 9-11 movie could have on the midterm elections, I recommend this course of action:

The night of, and the morning after, people will be hitting the internet looking for information on the events as depicted in this movie.

Our biggest opportunity will be to have nearly identical blog posts waiting, then submit them to be found internet wide the morning after the movie. Google and Technorati will pick up on these posts quickly. We can make these entries dominate the first several pages of the search engines.

MAKE SURE THE POST TITLE HAS THE TITLE OF THE MOVIE IN IT!

Get every Democratic friendly blog on board as possible... you e-mail the ones you know, they'll e-mail the ones they know, etc. Make SURE these blogs are on the Technorati network and have also been submitted to Google's blog search.

For one day, change the title of your blog to the title of the movie.

Agree on a clear, detailed, and sourced body of information -- I've seen several examples on DU lately disputing what is in the movie. Media Matters has one. One was posted today on DU by Richard Clarke.

Everyone post it. Right after the movie is over or the next morning at the latest.

MAKE SURE THE POST TITLE HAS THE TITLE OF THE MOVIE IN IT!

DU JOURNALS WILL ALSO WORK! They're indexed in Technorati! To use DU journals for this, the admins will need to allow a forum for everyone who want to to post and almost identical post with facts concerning intelligence failures leading up to 9/11.

MAKE SURE THE POST TITLE HAS THE TITLE OF THE MOVIE IN IT!

3. K&R. And this is just the beginning. Between now and November...
...we need to be prepared to do this, at every turn. Is there some way that DU can facilitate your plan?

5. now that I think about...
One person can make a post with all the information, then add it to his/her journal. Then everyone else can reply to the post, copy all the information in, then add the reply to his or her journal. And so on...

As for blogs outside of DU, it will take someone like KOS or Atrios to get really get that ball rolling. I have about 10 bloggers I know, and they can spread the word, too. But we need thousands on board to be overwhelmingly effective.

Edited on Tue Sep-05-06 02:39 PM by Fridays Child
...let's put the power of the Internet to work!

As for putting together all the information, I'm willing to use my journal for the project. In addition to Will Pitt's article, are there other links that you think should be included?

Edit: I wonder if admin would be willing to pin it so that it gets as many responses as possible.

If it is to be pinned, it should be done in a slow forum to stay off the freeper radar.

16. Links should be in all of our sig lines
Edited on Thu Sep-07-06 09:30 PM by me b zola
Once we decide on what we want to link to, we should all put in it our sig lines. Then as we read DU we can click on people's links as we come across them. We did this last year for commander Koo-koo bananas with huge success.

on edit, here's a link to Will's "Data Dump" thread:

4. Just so that everyone is clear: Sunday, Sept. 10, is episode #1.
So, on Sunday night, we need to be operational. And we need to remain operational for the next few days, at least.

But for different reasons.

The site is run by a conservative, but he actually links to other sources and old news articles that debunk LC. Read the first post, dated "December 31, 2006" for some reason.

13. Friday's Child has put together a combination of information for us
... From Richard Clarke's stuff to Will Pitt's piece. Anyone who wants to post it to their blogs, let me know. In addition, Friday's Child will start a thread Sunday with the information posted and kicked into his/her journal. If you'd like, reply to the post, alter the title just a little, copy all the information into your reply, then kick it into your journal.

...or you dilute the bomb's effectiveness.

Wouldn't Brit be so disappointed? Fuck him. (I can't say it enough.)

Hi, Brit! Fuck you! Bombs Away!

And for extra punch, I added this post to my journal. :)

25. Sure...but you may have to change your sig line. It's nearly maxed out
Edited on Thu Sep-07-06 10:02 PM by mcscajun
now. And three lines are the limit.

add this somewhere in your sig, but change the Parentheses I've used to square brackets to enable the HTML:
(link:www.truthout.org/docs_2006/083006J.shtml | The Path to 9/11)

If you want it on a separate line, add a (br) before it or after it; again, changing the parentheses to square brackets.

(see the HTML Lookup table within Message options in any new post or reply for details if you are confused.)

Good luck!

27. Thanks mcscajun
It took me a while to get back to you to thank you because Mr.Zola took over the computer.

I deleted a sentence of my sig line to make room for the link. Could you tell me how to space the link from the quote that is in my sig line so that it looks better and for clarity purposes? If I have to, I will delete the quote from my sig line, but I would rather keep it if I could.

Once again, thanks for your help.

29. Put it on its own line, using a (br) tag.
Edited on Fri Sep-08-06 06:33 AM by mcscajun
Again, replacing the parentheses with square brackets.
Your other option is to use the code for Non-breaking space. it's an ampersand with nbsp after it.

That'll do it. :)

Saved me a little time with the url link to TO!

Can't I rename my Journal?
How can we make sure it's linked to Technorati? :shrug:

I already know it's linked to google though! ;)

I've been spreading the word about this!
And doing this through November is a fantastic idea!!

32. Unbiased information you want, is it, now?
Well, how about we do a movie and get it aired on ABC about how no one lied about weapons of mass destruction?

Or maybe a movie about why the NSA call center was started before 9/11?

Do you think we can get that on mainstream media?

Somehow, I don't get the feeling that you are really interested in unbiased information.

The Path To 9/11

There are big new developments on the heels of Mickey's - The Path To 9/11, indicating that Bush wasn't just ineffective in dealing with Bin Laden: there may have been a significant relationship between the two before Bush even took office.

According to a source, the federal government has been closely following a pedophilia ring inside Disney's Burbank offices. Disney has been shuffling problem executives that have been using casting calls for new Disney TV productions as a path for finding and isolating children lured by the promise of appearing on Disney-branded shows. Once in a "private screen test", chosen victims were met with a figure in a giant Mickey costume, and forced to sodomize Mickey repeatedly in his furry Mouse ass. The Path To 9/11

The eleven known victims are described as between eight and twelve years of age, and were allegedly molested at the Burbank offices of the Disney company by eight separate high-level Disney executives. Again, as with al Qaeda, the Bush administration made a simple deal: we'll see that the charges get dropped, and in exchange: you work for us. The Path To 9/11

ABC is marketing its docudrama, The Path To 9/11, as "based on The Path To 9/11 Commission Report." But yesterday, writer Cyrus Nowrasteh admitted that the film's most controversial scene was based on nothing at all. Nowrasteh told a radio station that the scene was "improvised." Source: Digg, The Path To 9/11

James Bamford, an author and journalist who has written about security issues, appeared on MSNBC to discuss “The Path To 9/11.” Bamford revealed that an FBI agent who worked as a consultant to the film quit halfway through production of the mini-series because he believed the writers and producers were “making things up.” Source: Digg, The Path To 9/11
