Let's see ....

I do not know how trustworthy MSNBC is compared to BBC, so take the following under the assumption that the story is true and these guys are as trustworthy as the BBC (which does have a bias on occasions)

I can see why some idiots in the biggest group of pirates in the world (look at the history, Hollywood is only there because of patient fights with Edison) would think that this would be a "good idea"
I doubt so much that it was the REAL team 6, or even if it's the team 6 that did the op, if it was, balaclavas everywhere
I would know what "credibility" the movie would get if it was "made from actual eye-witnesses and the real team 6", so in relation to point two, I think that was some spin put on to make the movie more "bad-ass" thus giving them the boost up in "gun-toting, batshit insane rednecks" that they are probably looking at for their target market.

Note, not all people who have guns are insane or rednecks, and not all rednecks are batshit insane or own guns, but there some select few that alas, defined the stereotype.
