Moore admits Disney 'ban' was a stunt
By Andrew Gumbel in Los Angeles
07 May 2004
Less than 24 hours after accusing the Walt Disney Company of pulling the plug on his latest docu.mentary in a blatant attempt at political censorship, the rabble-rousing film-maker Michael Moore has admitted he knew a year ago that Disney had no intention of distributing it.
The admission, during an interview with CNN, undermined Moore's claim that Disney was trying to sabotage the US release of Fahrenheit 911 just days before its world premiere at the Cannes film festival.
Instead, it lent credence to a growing suspicion that Moore was manufacturing a controversy to help publicise the film, a full-bore attack on the Bush administration and its handling of national security since the attacks of 11 September 2001.

So? Should he have started ranting a year ago instead? At least he's not lying outright, which is the conservative way of doing things.
The conservative problem with Michael Moore is that he's not afraid of them, he reaches a wide audience and he makes them look very, very bad. Which they are. I think I'm gonna make a donation to the ACLU in this threads honor.
