Just what we need for today: A Zoolander controversy! In response to my post earlier today, an email writes:

I remember going to see Zoolander a couple weeks after 9/11..and the Trade Towers were still there..because my date and I (and those around us that evening) became vey sad when that image was there.

Here’s an image of the World Trade Center scene. This site claims: “Zoolander, a Ben Stiller comedy about a clueless male model unwittingly recruited to become an assassin, was set in New York. In one shot, the Twin Towers were erased; in another, they were obscured. Lower Manhattan was never fully shown in the film.”

Memo to Rich: I’m thinking this is a topic for tonight’s show.
