Excerpt:
This coming Saturday, November 22, 2008, at 9pm est, America's Most Wanted, which is Fox-TV's longest running program, will fictionalize the heinous double murder of Texas-American teenagers, Amina and Sarah Said, by their father, Yaser Abdul Said, and, in my opinion, by their mother Patricia ("Tissy,") as well.
The producer told me that this created-for-TV drama will run for 13 minutes and will probably air as the second story of the hour.
Gail Gartrell, who is the heroically determined great-aunt of the two doomed girls, insisted that the producer call me herself to verify that the show was, finally, going to run. (Thank you Gail!) The drama was "in the can" long ago but producers wisely delayed airing it until after the Great Election Madness had died down.
