911 TV Series

A WINNING STRATEGY for the 9/11 Truth movement has the power to reverse the corrupt coup d’etat the Bush Administration represents. But getting out the real story needs a serious counter-media TV presence. With modest funding for promotion, advertising, and airtime, local broadcasts of a TV series of already produced videos could gain widespread viewership.

Front pages and newscasts were full of the stage-managed pageant the Bush Administration conducted with the 9/11 Commission, carefully scripted to avoid known embarrassing questions about what actually happened that day, how and why. The latest reimprinting of the official story are the Moussaoui trial and the theatrical release of United 93. We need to break into this dumb show, designed fundamentally to substantiate the Al Qaeda conspiracy theory. Either we get our information out to the masses soon, or this illegitimate government will have gotten away with its mass deception, as so many times previously in human history.

TELEVISING A SERIES OF FINISHED PROGRAMS could create a promotional platform to debate the merits of the case. Show us where our critiques are misguided. Produce evidence for the official story. Put their experts in debate against our authorities, and let the public decide who makes better sense. 9/11 activists are aware of truths that simply require exposure. We have plenty of plausible replies to our questions that look damming to the current regime. What are their answers to these questions?

A SELF-FINANCING PLAN would involve coming up with some $15,000 seed money to pay for the first local broadcasts and their promotion, buying affordable commercial program time on UHF TV. Provocative targeted ads and publicity can alert viewers to the issue, even if not all of them actually watch airings of the 9/11 shows on a local channel. Spots within the telecasts could market available videos. On-line sales and contributions can help fund additional broadcasts of the multi-part video series. Distributing these programs on TV would maximize citizen awareness and facilitate their responding through the Web.

STRONG MEDIA SELF-PROMOTION is what the movement needs to prioritize budgeting and financing. Get what coverage we can from the mainstream press, but the key to success and making a difference is raising money for greater self-generated outreach NOW. This tactic works directly against the establishment’s zero-coverage strategy. We can change the current political calculus by putting an alternative narrative out through channels that will take our money, sufficiently so that the larger public gets an inkling of the treachery hidden behind the conventional wisdom.
