termal: I think it wouldn't have been funny if it were not for the reporters reaction.

Instead of just admitting she'd been tricked, she gets all defensive, complaining that children are watching the show. What a cop out.

I agree. I don't really buy into the conspiracy theory view of 9/11. However, this professor clearly has spent time critically thinking about it, and he has come to a different, highly controversial, conclusion. Due to this, he's being accused of being a nutcase, and pundits and politicians are trying to get him fired.

This is a direct and distrubing attack on academic freedom. If someone feels he is wrong, they can certainly make the case. Firing professors because you don't agree with them, whether they are liberals or conservative, is wrong. Students will not be somehow tainted because they took his course. What they learn in university is critical analysis skills, and they should be able to figure out whether or not they think this prof is wrong, or whether ot not blowhards like Hannity who would rather silence his opponents are wrong.

Actually, it was T6NL, not D6NL.

The description you got from the video on google isn't totally accurate. There is a report on the accident here:

The reason the plane has an English accent is because it's a plane exported from Britain. It is not an 'F-16' but is actually a CT-155, described here:

The pilots did not escape unharmed. According to the first link, 'One crewmember was seriously injured in the sequence and the other received minor injuries.'.
