About the Author
Gerhard Wisnewski, born in 1959, studied political science. Since 1986, he has worked as an author and documentary filmmaker. In 2003, he made the first critical television documentatary on the attacks of September 11, 2001, in a large worldwide broadcast. His books in German include: Operation 9/11; Mythos 9/11, and Das RAF-Phantom. His documentary film Das Phantom, based on the book, was awarded the Grimm Prize in 2000.

Fitting perhaps that his 'documentary' work won an award named after the creators of fairy tales?

After having produced his critical film on 9/11 for the West German
Television (WDR), Wisnewski was fired.

Really? I'm shocked.
