Ok, I could not help myself. I wrote an email to the History Channel and I asked why exactly that the “Ottoman Empire: The War Machine” special was not aired as scheduled. Yes, you are reading my mind — I was thinking perhaps some outside pressure (cough, cough) was administered to keep it from seeing the light of day. Here is the response I received in my email this morning:

Thank you for your interest in The History Channel program OTTOMAN EMPIRE: THE WAR MACHINE. We will be rescheduling this documentary, which was scheduled to premiere on Thursday June 22 at 8PM, because the program was not completed in time for air. We appreciate your continued support.

Regards, Viewer Relations

Ok, Viewer Relations. I’ll be waiting patiently.

Also, the DVD of this program which was on sale on their site on June 22nd disappeared mysteriously June 23rd. I am sorry to say that it looks like History Channel made it appear this program never existed and they have no intension of ever airing it. Most likely for political reasons. Shamefull! Never expected it from History Channel. I emailed them, too. I also asked about the DVD. Because obviously the program was complete AND had the DVD already on sale before airtime. Got the same generic reply as you did. I wonder if anyone else realises what is going on It is not fair that they are doing this!

I don’t know but I intend to ask more questions directly to the History Channel about this incident.
