RE: THE END OF THE WORLD (9/11 SURVIVOR) - Brief excerpts from my Ground Zero journal

I'm glad to have read that. We often get the watered down version or the dramatized version, often together. This was raw, maybe the first time I read such a raw account. I was just across the river at that time. Thanks for your service to humanity.

Sort:  

I think we got a watered down version because the media was not allowed in. I don't think the government could have controlled the story the way they did if real investigative journalists were allowed to report from inside the site. It was a genuine war zone.

How did they control the story, I see you said that but what do you mean? Do you just mean it was much more brutal than they mentioned or was there anything else?

There was a media blackout. A lot of people did not believe the official story. It is possible the truth movement would not exist if the media were allowed in. John Farmer special counsel to the 9/11 commission stated in his book, (paraphrasing) the Bush administration made the decision to lie to the American people. Perhaps, they felt we couldn't handle the truth?
