How 9/11 led to the downfall of Ellen DeGeneres

For those of you who do not wish to watch the clip:
1. 9/11 ends up being the the inspiration to create the band My Chemical Romance
2. My Chemical Romance ends up being the inspiration for Twilight
3. Twilight ends up being the origin of 50 Shades of Grey
4. 50 Shades of Grey is how Dakota Johnson becomes a star
5. Dakota Johnson calls out Ellen on her show when she claims she never got an invitation to Dakota's party (which she actually did)
6. This "Ellen in her place" ends up inspiring staff on her show to speak up about how horrid a boss she is
So 9/11 caused the end of the Ellen DeGeneres show.

You can tell how instantly she started to squirm and wanted to end that interview after Dakota went on the offensive.

I'd argue the Anti-Mongol Fatwas in 1311 led to her firing.
This inspired the the Diriyah Pact 433 years later in 1744.
Eventually this led to the the Sykes-Picot Agreement in 1916, which drew the modern borders of the Middle East with a ruler, ignoring tribal and sectarian line
Angered by this Sayyid Qutb’s would eventually take a trip to Greeley, Colorado where he was horrified by what he saw saying it as "soulless, materialistic, and sexually promiscuous." He returned to Egypt radicalized, writing Milestones, a book that later served as the operational manual for modern jihad.
This radicalization led to the Siege of the Grand Mosque in 1979
And then eventually the "Defense of Muslim Lands" Fatwa in 1984 and then the assassination of Abdullah Azzam in 1989.
This was following 6 years later by the Bojinka plot where police in Manila, Philippines, accidentally started a fire in an apartment while investigating a chemical smell. They found a laptop belonging to Ramzi Yousef (nephew of 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed). The laptop contained the "Bojinka" plot: a plan to blow up 11 airliners over the Pacific. It was the tactical blueprint for using planes as missiles, later adapted for 9/11.
After another 6 years, the CIA created the "Station Alec" Bureaucracy. a special unit dedicated solely to tracking Bin Laden, known as "Alec Station." However, due to bureaucratic friction, it was physically located in a separate building from the rest of the Counterterrorism Center. This physical and cultural separation contributed to the "stovepiping" of intelligence, preventing crucial information from flowing to the FBI.
Following that in July 10, 2001, there was the Phoenix Memo where FBI agent Kenneth Williams in Phoenix, Arizona, wrote a memo to headquarters noting a "pattern" of Arab men taking flight lessons but having no interest in learning how to take off or land. He recommended a nationwide sweep of flight schools. The memo was buried in bureaucracy and never acted upon before September 11.
Then in August 2001 the Moussaoui Laptop being ignored when Zacarias Moussaoui was arrested in Minnesota after suspicious behavior at a flight school. FBI field agents desperately wanted to search his laptop, believing he was a terrorist. Headquarters denied the request for a warrant, citing insufficient probable cause under FISA laws. After 9/11, the laptop was searched; it contained direct evidence linking him to the 9/11 plotters.
Then 9/11
Then My Chemical Romance

The show first aired almost 2 years to the day after 9/11. It's still a funny premise.

these people have too much time on their hands. Social media is a hell of a drug to come up with this kind of stuff.

So what does this have to do with the movie Cars??
ETA: that Ellen/DJ clip is one of the cringiest things ever. Good Lord.

Dakota Johnson does have great bangs.

You forgot to add that Dakota Johnson was in "Black Mass" with Kevin Bacon.

I’ve said that for years around here. It’s the only way I’ve ever read his name.
