The Real Rudy

Somebody had to make this movie (and actually, somebody did; it's called Giuliani Time), and Brave New Films has released their first installment of The Real Rudy, detailing Giuliani's record as mayor and not the hype. Combined with the International Association of Fire Fighters video "Urban Legend," the truth about Rudy is out there. For those in the reality-based community, it's not the social issues or the stance on guns that spells Giuliani's downfall: it's his judgment.



This one's about the decision to put the emergency operations center in the 23rd floor of 7 World Trade Center, the only area where terrorists had attacked in New York City. Due to this enormous error, emergency communications were severed and fire fighters never got the message to evacuate the soon-to-fall South Tower. It's a devastating piece.
