Yah, well what you have to keep in mind is that now with 8 years of them doing absolutely nothing to get to the truth of that day. They are now super guilty of failing the American public. But not even failing, INTENTIONALLY failing the American Public. Essentially, they have a duty and they intentionally neglected it so that they could follow the official lies.
So ontop of battling a rogue government for truth, we now have to battle a guilty media empire that doesn't want to be exposed either. Because if 911 is exposed, the media will be exposed along with it. And people will be PISSED that the media didn't bother telling them about the biggest criminal act in United States history.

In the following clips Glen Beck, Geraldo Revera, Bill O' Reiley, Bill Maher, etc., take turns calling anyone that doesn't agree with the OS names, while affording them zero air time to defend themselves against such slanderous and libelous attacks by a controlled propaganda machine, run by our corporate government. Bill Maher even physically attacks a truther that was merely asking him a question? Ask yoursleves, why the blatant hostility towards indivuals (family members of the fallen) that are simply demanding some kind of investigation into these events?
You are being duplicitous with this statement.
a) You need to separate yourselves from the family members of the fallen. I fully support their request for information becuase they themselves said many times they want to know how the gov't failed in its responsibility in preventing the 9/11 attack, while YOU want to convince peopel that the attack was really an internally staged event. They are two separate things and you do not represent them.
b) You seem to overlook the fact that the conspiracy proponents are the minority. The majority of people do not subscribe to the viewpoint it was a ataged event (as witnessed by the fact that we need to come to these conspiracy boards to even find you people), so they will necessarily take umbrage at your efforts. They naturally see it as an attempt to use the deaths and suffering of other people for your own political benefit.
c) do yourself a favor- browse Youtube for "9/11 demonstrator" and you will come across a number of cases where overly zealous truthers have displayed quite dreadful behavior, specifically to people like Geraldo Rivera. One case I saw was when Rivera had a street interview with a movie star, and a bunch of truthers invaded the set behind him and began chanting truther slogans in the deliberate attempt to usurp his program and grab free airtime at his expense. Your rights end where the rights of other people begin, you know.
The problem is compounded by your inability to even agree amongst yourselves what the conspiracy actually is I.E. whether the towers were brought down by demolitions, lasers from outer space, nukes in the basement, or even whether there actually were planes and not cruise missiles or holograms. Your difficulty in getting your message out has less to do with everyone being hypnotized by any centralized propaganda campain, and more to do with the fact the 9/11 conspiracy movement is suffering from serious credibility problems.

It's always interesting to watch 9/11 Truthers try to pin the blame for their own failures on the media and the government. Lets review the facts:
1. You all have had 8 years of unfettered free speech on the Internet, in demonstrations, in all kinds of forums, to promote your claims. We've all heard them a thousand times, repeated ad nauseum.
2. Neither the government nor anyone else has prevented you from saying anything you want.
3. You have not been arrested for speaking out yet claim the government and media is out to repress you and your "questions."
4. You all claim the MSM lies yet you want them to do your bidding.
5. You assume that your "questions" are legitimate and that requires someone "has" to answer them.
6. You claim that you a want a "new" investigation but declare the government is "guilty" already without need for any investigation.
7. You claim to already "know" the truth more than you claim to have "questions."
8. You repeat the same questions for which answers have been repeatedly given for years that you don't like and are inconvenient to the "truth" you already declare to have.
9. You claim the lack of evidence for your conspiracy theories is evidence of a conspiracy.
Gosh.
I could go on. The point is that you won't admit to yourselves the real truth and have to blame others for your own failings. We've been telling you for years that you are barking up the wrong tree. But you won't listen to reason. Instead, you adopt the Bushism of "you're either with us or against us" and close your eyes why no one pays attention to your silly conspiracy theories.

Browse youtube for anything and you will find the more extreme elements of just about anything. I'm sure that there is a crazy right-wing elements to the dog grooming industry as well. They dress up in Nazi regala and salute Hitler before every dog show. According to your logical fallacy, that must mean that all dog groomers should be ignored and are by your own fiat wrong.
This is typical propaganda demonization fanfaire put on by government outlets that are trying to silence their enemies. The difference between the Nazis, Soviets, and the US is that people in the US accept their slavery without realizing that they are being propagandized into doing so.
All of the hostility seems to be coming from within the studio. Come on, get real... what other group of protestors are treated this badly for no apparent reason?
Straw Man! There is no disagreement.

1. What have you heard ad nauseum?
2. Deflected would be a better term than prevented.
3. Government and media employ the ridicule tactic.
4. The bidding I require is "investigative journalism" not WH talking points.
5. I assume my questions are legitimate.
Duty by whom and to whom? By what right do you claim that anyone has to answer your questions?
Duty would dictate answering said legitimate questions.
6. An impartial investigation would be in order. Non government would be best.
7. Reviewing policy implemented since 9/11 would reasonably indicate ulterior motives for the case of national security measures, foreign policy and the infringment on constitutionally guaranteed rights.
8. That one didn't make sense A-Tall
9. See #8
Slinging insults is as old and tiring as a bully on the playground. Actually you hurt your own cause by your own lack of knowledge.
I personally didn't know there was a conspiracy theory about 9/11 until a year ago. My own questions prompted me to look for information. What a surprise to find out my suspicions were not a unique event.
