Producers behind the upcoming film focussing on Ted Kennedy and the Chappaquiddick incident purchased ad space to play during and just before CNN’s upcoming miniseries “American Dynasties: The Kennedy,” sources familiar with the film’s promotion strategy told The Daily Caller News Foundation.

Entitled “The Truth,” the movie trailer will play on CNN Sunday before the premiere of “American Dynasties,” with other ads playing during commercial breaks throughout the series in the coming weeks.

Saw this tonight at @FDRLST screening. Was worried that it would be a hagiography. It's not. Very balanced, extremely nuanced. Excellent screenplay.

CNN On 'Chappaquiddick': It Was Poor Ted Kennedy's 'Darkest Hour.' Twitter Explodes With Outrage.

On Tuesday, CNN decided to tweet about its coverage of “Chappaquiddick,” the new film revolving around Senator Ted Kennedy and the drowning of Mary Jo Kopechne in the back seat of Kennedy’s car.

It wasn’t just the tweet that completely ignored the real tragedy of Kopechne’s death while moaning over Kennedy’s poor feelings; even the article it linked to started like this: “Director John Curran was at first hesitant to sign on for ‘Chappaquiddick,’ a film that explores a tragic chapter in the life of Sen. Ted Kennedy.”  ...

Twitter was aflame with those slamming CNN for its sympathy for Kennedy:
