shhhh! DonnovanPhillips thinks that if it was written on a "serious" website... it HAD to be true... lol
He doesnt quite know yet the difference between a serious rigorous journalist... and a punk writting for a website or newspaper giving his opinions/interpretation on something he heard on CNN.... lol
If the title of an article reads.. "Moore admits Disney 'ban' was a stunt" then it means .. it is now official and confirmed!!

Disney's Craven Behavior
Give the Walt Disney Company a gold medal for cowardice for blocking its Miramax division from distributing a film that criticizes President Bush and his family. A company that ought to be championing free expression has instead chosen to censor a hahahahahahahahaary that clearly falls within the bounds of acceptable political commentary.
The hahahahahahahahaary was prepared by Michael Moore, a controversial filmmaker who likes to skewer the rich and powerful. As described by Jim Rutenberg yesterday in The Times, the film, "Fahrenheit 9/11," links the Bush family with prominent Saudis, including the family of Osama bin Laden. It describes financial ties that go back three decades and explores the role of the government in evacuating relatives of Mr. bin Laden from the United States shortly after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. The film was financed by Miramax and was expected to be released this summer.
Mr. Moore's agent said that Michael Eisner, Disney's chief executive, had expressed concern that the film might jeopardize tax breaks granted to Disney for its theme park, hotels and other ventures in Florida, where Jeb Bush is governor. If that is the reason for Disney's move, it would underscore the dangers of allowing huge conglomerates to gobble up diverse media companies.

if Moore was a moron, conservatives wouldn't hate him. You ever see 'Roger and Me'?Comment

Oh they are different, are they?Originally posted by dig420
No, he's not. And the Democrats aren't 'just as bad as the Republicans' either. There are very real differences between the parties, and there are VERY real differences between Bush and Moore. To think there's not just shows a lack of research.
The GOP wants to tax the hell out of us to build a government monstor that consumes trillions of dollars doing absoutely nothing except playing a game of Monopoly.
The goddamn Democrats want to tax us to death so they can give everybody who dosent wanna work for a living a free ride while the rest of us work to feed them so they can pop out babies.
Representives of each party are both bought and sold by giant corporations like they were a fucking commodity.
Neither one of them have upheld the consitution when it would be easier or cheaper not to. They both bend the consititution over and fuck it if they think it will give another donation, another vote, another day in office.
They both like big business because it is easy to control a few huge companies rather than a million little mom and pop shops that think independantly.
Are they really different? You bet they are. They screw us in different ways. The Democrats at least lube your asshole and snap on a condom before they ass rape you. The GOP says "screw the lube, that costs money and fuck the condom too!"
Lewis Black put it really well: "Democrats blow and Republicans suck."
There used to be two parties that were different than the Dems and GOP. The Greens and The Libertarians. The Green Party has more or less collapsed. There is one left. The Libertarians.Comment

No. Republicans propose amendments to the constitution to ban gay marriage, flag burning and other 'offensive' personal expressions. Democrats propose amendments for such trivial things as civil rights and universal sufferage.Originally posted by synergysex

Lewis Black is about as funny as Dennis Miller, which is to say 'not very'.
They may both like Big Business, but it seems from campaign donation patterns that Big Business only likes Conservatives.
Dems like social programs more than prison because it's cheaper to pay tuition for a year than it is to keep someone locked up for a year, and educated people are much less likely to commit crimes.Comment

you wanna see what a Libertarian existence looks like? Rent 'Children Underground' from Netflix or read Lord of the Flies'
Libertarianism is a pipe dream for people who think they're too smart to be a republican or a democrat. But they're not.
"Whatsoever therefore is consequent to a time of war, where every man is enemy to every man, the same consequent to the time wherein men live without other security than what their own strength and their own invention shall furnish them withal. In such condition there is no place for industry, because the fruit thereof is uncertain: and consequently no culture of the earth; no navigation, nor use of the commodities that may be imported by sea; no commodious building; no instruments of moving and removing such things as require much force; no knowledge of the face of the earth; no account of time; no arts; no letters; no society; and which is worst of all, continual fear, and danger of violent death; and the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short."
Translation for Libertarians: Without rules, without the social contract, any psycho with a gun and the willingness to kill you owns you.Last edited by dig420; 05-06-2004, 06:25 PM.Comment

I don't like Michael Moore's bigotry against his own (American) people and disagree with him about 50% of the time. That said, better Michael Moore than some dickwad Jeb Bush trying to sway public opinion by jamming his hand up Disney's ass.
Miramax confirmed the pressure tactics, and Eisner's office admitted to them.
Now what was that about Michael Moore's "honesty"? Here's another URL to Moore's personal site including information on the media attacks against him:

Personally, I wish someone would start kicking around that media whore Dennis Miller who has turned into a tiny puppet of god.

Are you just dumb or did you even read about it? The "publicity stunt" was to bring more attention to his causes. The fact that his film would not be published by Disney/Miramax (i believe it was), is saying something about the huge censorship problem in this country.Originally posted by DonovanPhillips

Here's a funny twist.
The article that started this thread has been edited - the headline has been changed to better reflect the editorial content of the article. It now says:
Moore accused of publicity stunt over Disney 'ban'
Even the idiot who wrote the anti-Moore right wing spin had to admit it was wrong.

I agree, Disney/Miramax trying to ban his movie is completely un-American. That's just a big mistake. No matter how much you disagree with Moore's views.
I don't see any harm releasing Moore's movie. Because, if you have seen his last hahahahahahahahaary(or seen his hilarious speeches), Bowling for Columbine, you would see it for what it really was, a collection of images/video/sound clips from leaders and stars taken COMPLETELY out of context. That's what he does, he distorts he spins topics to fit his liking, to represent his personal opinion on our country's history and future..Which is completely distorted from reality....
A lot of people watch it, as I have, but I think its only out of curiosity, not support. This guy isn't concerned about the president or the direction our country is headed! Come on open your eyes, he's nothing more than a shock-jock, except he creates films... Its about $$$ folksComment

Well with the Iraq news, you need a few stunts to get heard......Originally posted by DonovanPhillips
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.

Does no-one have any sense of irony?
A year ago GW posed in a pilot's suit in front of a huge banner proclaiming "Mission Accomplished". Right.
We have been told, as close to officially as is likely to happen, that we have invaded a country based on, if not lies, then at least on a very generous interpretation of the truth.
In the US it costs $150 million in campaign funds to pay for the publicity necessary to elect (or perhaps not elect) a Republican president.
And here we have a thread that attempts to dismiss someone's whole message because he is good at his job and knows how to get the maximum attention for himself and what he has to say.
Were that not enough, the intellectual level of those making that attempt is such they seem unable to hahahahaha a few sentences without including words like "dickhead" and "moron" at every turn.Comment

I don't see why anyone thinks Disney is somehow obligated to distribute Moore's crap.
They told him when he started that they were not going to distribute it, and they lived up to their word. BFD, let him find someone else to distribute it. If there was money to be made with it, I am sure Disney would be all over it like a fat kid on a Twinkie.Comment
