Conservatives are upset about the ABC-TV movie "The Day After" due to
its already obvious leanings toward the liberal/left delirium.  It has
been reported that the producers sought the opinion of nuclear-freeze
advocates to better tailor the movie and its publicity to the politics
of the left.  The method the producers have chosen for depicting the
use of nuclear weapons will merely aggravate the fear we all have
regarding nuclear war, without contributing anything at all positive
to its actual avoidance and eventual removal of the threat.

It is gasoline on the flames of hysteria and is therefore an irresponsible
movie.  I recommend watching Masterpiece Theatre instead.
