‘9/11 Press for Truth’ on Channel 12 Draws Huge Support from Colorado Public Television Viewers
Program will repeat at 2:00, 9:00 and midnight on Saturday

DENVER – (June 4, 2009) – KBDI has always been at the forefront of controversial programming and last night was no exception. As the first broadcast station in the United States to air the controversial documentary 9/11 Press for Truth, which claims a 9/11 cover-up, KBDI showed that it is not afraid to touch on sensitive subjects.

Due to viewer response to the program, Channel 12 will repeat the program Saturday, June 6 at 2 p.m. and 9 p.m., followed by an encore at midnight.

During the premiere, Bob McIlvaine, who lost his son Bobby at the World Trade Center, and 9/11 Press for Truth producer Kyle Hence and director Ray Nowosielski were in the studio to give more insight into why they believed 9/11 was a cover-up and why the American public should be screaming for answers.

Supporters of the documentary hope that because of the risk KBDI took by putting 9/11 Press for Truth on the air that more PBS stations across the nation will take a chance and broadcast the controversial documentary.

Press for Truth’s producer Kyle Hence already has heard the cries saying people from all over the country have been forwarding his e-mails on to their local PBS stations.

The program will repeat on Channel 12. A full schedule of air times for all of the programs can be found at www.KBDI.org.

Excerpts from Viewer Buzz comments at www.KBDI.org

“Congratulations and many thanks for your showing of this important film! I can't believe you're the first to broadcast this in the US! We need more people in PBS of your vision and courage! Thanks again. I'm becoming a first time member.”

“I was enjoying watching TV this evening when I came across the 911 program. As a very patriotic American, I was apalled (sic) at the frivilous (sic) allegations that were being made. “

“Thank you for taking the risk and having the guts to show this program. Real news and investigative journalism are scarce commodities these days.”

“Congratulations on airing the well, second - program concerning the fallacies that have been promulgated to the American public concerning the history and events of 9/11.”

“It takes the courage of true patriotism to buck the military, industrial, media mafia. THANK YOU!”

This episode of Visibility 9-11 welcomes back to the program Kyle Hence, founder of 9-11 Citizens Watch and producer of the excellent documentary 9-11 Press for Truth.  Included is a brief discussion about the film as well as a new film Kyle is working on based on footnote #44 in Chapter 6 of the 9-11 Commission Report.  A press release from the September 11th Advocates reads in part:

"In July 2004, when the 9/11 Commission released its Final Report, we read with enormous interest, Chapter 6 - "From Threat to Threat", including footnote #44. Footnote #44 details an instance where a CIA desk officer intentionally withheld vital information from the FBI about two of the 9/11 hijackers who were inside the United States. This footnote further states that the CIA desk officer covered-up the decision to withhold said vital information from the FBI. Finally, footnote #44 states that the CIA desk officer could not recall who told her to carry out such acts."

Also included in this discussion are the circumstances surrounding the historic national premiere of '9/11 Press for Truth' on a major market PBS station.  On June 3, 2009 at 7:00pm, 9/11 Press for Truth will be shown on KBDI, Channel 12 in Denver Colorado.  This historic broadcast will feature in-studio interviews during the broadcast of Kyle Hence, Bob McIlvaine, and a representative of Colorado 9/11 Visibility.  As has been the case for the past couple of years, Colorado 9/11 Visibility will also be manning the phone banks during the broadcast, which is also part of the periodic fund drives at KBDI.  A great list of 9/11 books and DVD's will be offered as premium gifts to viewers who pledge during this broadcast.  Please contact KBDI and let them know how much you appreciate this historic broadcast and if you can, give them a donation which best fits your budget.
