Two Minor Bits
These aren't really lies, distortions or myths, they're just examples of slipshod work by the producers of Loose Change. At 31:48 of V2, Dylan Avery says of WTC 7:
"If this is true, then it would be the third building in history to collapse because of a fire. The first two would be the twin towers."
Of course, many, many buildings in history have collapsed due to fires. What Avery means to say is that these buildings were the first three steel-framed buildings to collapse because of fires. Although of course he would be lying there too, because he'd be ignoring the effects of the jets on the twin towers.
Another bit of sloppiness comes in the film's opening moments (0:54).
"March 13, 1962. Lyman Lemnitzer, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, presents a proposal to Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara"
Believe it or not, he pronounces McNamara as "Micknamara". It's "Macnamara". Avery repeats the mistake at 2:20.

Now that's just a ridiculous thing to point out. I suppose you go around pointing out spelling errors on message boards to show people how wrong they are too!
