Michael Moore's New Movie
The New York Times > National > Disney Forbidding Distribution of Film That Criticizes BushI have to hand it to Michael Moore - he has a way of creating oxygen for issues that seem laughable at first. There was a time that criticizing Bush's National Guard service was a roll-your-eyes low blow, but the blowback from Moore's endorsement of Clark (when he mentioned it) is what really got the ball rolling there. This sort of negative press, where it's all too easy to cry censorship, plays right into the Democrats hands.
