hey, my email worked!
September 6th, 2006 at 10:58 pmExcellent news. Now if I could only unburn my Harry Potter books.
September 6th, 2006 at 11:04 pmFinally some good news from this debacle!

Now if David Horowitz has a hissy fit, the Schadenfreude Symphony will be in truly fine form, especially the wailing and gnashing of teeth section
Expect the Frighties to have a conniption
Expect us libs to laugh at the Frighties conniption
September 6th, 2006 at 11:16 pmI am glad to see someone came to their senses.
The truth prevails again..onward ho!!
September 6th, 2006 at 11:16 pm“You in the right wing punditocracy are forever accusing us of empowering and encouraging the terrorists when we call for troop deployments and withdrawals yet don’t seem to recall Osama bin Laden’s well-timed video just before Election Day ’04 that basically proved that 4 out of 5 terrorists gave a resounding Yes to another four years.†-For Those About to Lie… (We Salute You)
September 6th, 2006 at 11:17 pmGood job, Scholastic.
September 6th, 2006 at 11:19 pmWow! An organization dedicated to improving education that really did something on principle! Wow!
September 6th, 2006 at 11:24 pmSSSSWWWWEEEETTTT!
September 6th, 2006 at 11:25 pmThe power of the netroots strikes again. This is really encouraging.
All Scholastic has done is close the channel to the info on the distribution of the CD, not say they were pulling th CD itself. Expect to see the CD in your kid’s backpack sometime during the school year…
September 6th, 2006 at 11:35 pmIf these people want to shape how 9/11 is percieved in the educational system, they’ll have to go through scholars for 9/11 truth – st911.org – and that’s one seriously impenetrable wall of truth.
September 6th, 2006 at 11:44 pmThat’s why ABC and their funders are weezling their way around the issue, they can’t even confront the real questions.
Keep up the fight against Disney and ABC untill they cancel the phony docudrama on 9/11 > that steaming pile of propaganda is outrageous!
September 6th, 2006 at 11:45 pmum… not so fast, all… correct me if i’m wrong, but what i read is that the links are blank, scrubbed… and this:
I’m cautiously optimistic that we’ll be getting a statement from Scholastic tomorrow.
best not count your chickens just yet!
but keep your fingers crossed…
September 6th, 2006 at 11:59 pmDo not give up the fight keep the focus on them right now they only stalled and could be waiting for things to blow over. We need to keep track and keep the pressure up for them to pull it completely with a recall or letter sent out to recall the material.
September 7th, 2006 at 12:20 amI just can’t wait for Pus Crack (Ann Coulter) to comment on the great and totally truthful docu-drama ‘The Path To 9-11′. She will undoubtedly say something to the effect, “See, it WAS all Clinton’s fault”.
September 7th, 2006 at 12:23 amWell, finally someone recognized this piece of propaganda dreku-drama for what it really is: the Administration’s ball-washing!
September 7th, 2006 at 1:27 amKudos to someone actually doing the right thing… that was a shock.
September 7th, 2006 at 1:52 amis it just me, or are there more and more people standing up for the real truth…?
we’ve had so much of it that we’ve become immune to the brainwashing, heh
September 7th, 2006 at 5:00 ami checked out what they were talking about at “The all spin zone” site and then did a google search. the page does come up blank, but if you check the cached page using google, and u click the download link for the student resource material, you can still download it. which means it is not gone from the site, just hidden.
I don’t know if this meeans that they are still going to use it in the schools, but it definately means you can still download the student resource material and use it.
September 7th, 2006 at 7:20 amsorry forgot to post the link for the google cache

September 7th, 2006 at 7:22 amKean has the nerve to sign his letter using “The Honorable Tom Kean”. Nerve.
September 7th, 2006 at 7:34 amGooooooood morning, Left Blgogstaaaaan!
“Twenty Bucks, Same as in Town”, blogwhoring at its finest. Included is the All Spin Zone’s journey tracking down the lowdown on Scholastic’s sudden refusal to catapult the ABC propaganda and a secret $450,000,000 slush fund given to George Bush from the Canadian gov’t. All this and much, much more.

September 7th, 2006 at 8:58 amThank goodness these lies will not be inculcated into the minds of our youth as truth! Remember how Hitler embraced the young and brainwashed them? Sounding familiar?
September 7th, 2006 at 9:05 amKean is a fraud. I think he fancies himself being in Hollywood instead of the US Government. He looks like a 5 year old at Christmas on the clips of the propaganda describing the move. As Chair of the 9/11 commission, how dare he make oblique remarks about the veracity of what this film contains! Like Blair, he also needs to step down – and now. He can no longer be trusted.
September 7th, 2006 at 9:07 amI’m confused.
As i checked pointed out, the info is still on the web, just hidden. (hit the i checked name and it’s right there.)
Scholastic hasn’t actually said they were not going to distribute the classroom information.
Have we really won this particular battle?
September 7th, 2006 at 9:16 amHas Scholastic done anything about the materials that are already in the hands of the tens of thousands of teachers who will have no need to access the web page before sending kids home on Friday to watch as HOMEWORK.
September 7th, 2006 at 10:53 amLet’s ask our local bookstores and libaries to get the REAL Harry Potter from the UK publisher instead of the Americanized version from Scholastic. Who wants to be “dummed down” anyway.
September 7th, 2006 at 10:53 amWhat is terriorism? Is it some one using weapons of mass desstruction or is it ruling by LIES and Deceit as this REGIME has done since day one Now Clinton made me do it
By Scholastic sending out material it 25,000 schools for teachers and parents to use Now, does that look like ITS MY JOB TO KEEP YOU SAFE
No Terrorist do not have to use military weapons to be labeled terroist
Say, that means we do have active terrorist in our country
