Made for tv movie


Who is going to be the first one to create the Roger Clemens (HGH / Steroids) made for tv movie?

It's only a matter of time before someone puts this whole media circus on tv. Will it be ABC, NBC, CBS or maybe HBO? I'm not really concerned who will play Clemens, his wife or any of the other characters in this drama. I am more interested in when the movie is coming.

It seems like there is an incubation period before media releases something to the public. With 9/11 is took 2 years (plus there was the ban by the government on any and all images associated to 9/11), but the normal incubation period for a story like this seems to be in the neighborhood of a year or two after the initial event.

What is the criteria behind this? The public has to digest the real story first, next the story itself has to be brought to resolution and then mainstream media has to deem merit behind it. The Roger story hasn't even come close to ending yet and the public has a lot more information to digest. So it looks like I'll have to wait a more than two years before the release of this made for tv movie.
