To be honest mate, if the government ministers appeared on your TV today, tomorrow, or any other time, just to say how to protect yourself, wouldn't you think: "Why are they telling me this now?", at some random point some 3 years after 9/11? I'd think they knew something specific and I guess most other people would. Smuggling it in under the guise of a drama, would make people think: oh they just thought it was a good time to include it. If they were going to run an ad campaign without a drama series to back it up, then they should of attached it to some aniversary. like once a year after 9/11 or something. Without some "excuse" to get it out, I doubt you could warn people without them getting worried.
I really think there should be more education though. Attaching to something I think would be the only way to get it out without worrying people unnecessarily.
