"They" Censored an Artist's Vision of 9/11. Now You SEE it.
THE WASHINGTON TIMES
By Terry Ponick
WASHINGTON – Today’s date, a decade after this monstrous mass murder, is being marked by commemorative ceremonies at all three sites. But sadly, the national unity we all experienced on that bright, sunny, yet horrendous morning is increasingly missing. And there’s no better evidence of this fact than the foolish yet unfortunate brouhaha surrounding the Nonesuch CD release of Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Steve Reich’s commemorative composition WTC 9/11. For the CD jewel case “album cover,” Reich and Nonesuch chose the striking, iconic Masatomo Kuriya image of the Twin Towers under attack. The original Steve Reich/Nonesuch 'WTC 9/11' CD cover the Thought Police don't want you to see. Now you see it. [link]
