Investor: Disney shelved 9/11 film
By Christian Toto - March 22, 2008

Tom Borelli is so sure the Walt Disney Co. is suppressing the DVD release of the 2006 miniseries "The Path to 9/11" for political reasons that he is ready to put up money to prove the point.

Mr. Borelli, a Disney shareholder, accused Disney CEO Robert Iger at a March 6 shareholders' meeting of blocking the release of "Path" in order to protect Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign and the legacy of her husband's administration.

Mr. Iger countered at the time that the decision not to release the miniseries on DVD was motivated by business considerations, not political ones.

Mr. Borelli has now told The Washington Times he plans to make an offer to buy the DVD rights to "Path," an Emmy-winning miniseries that prompted fury among Democrats for its depiction of the Clinton administration as dithering and adrift in the face of the growing threat from radical Islamic terrorism.

Mr. Borelli, a portfolio manager with the Free Enterprise Action Fund — an investment fund that seeks to counter the influence of left-leaning "ethical investment" funds — says he has sent a letter to Disney's general counsel requesting a meeting to outline his bid for the film. He won't reveal a figure, but suspects that no dollar amount will persuade Disney executives to allow "The Path to 9/11" to reach store shelves.........
