Too hot for Bush?
'If I have to travel across the country and show it in city parks (or, as one person offered yesterday, to show it on the side of his house for the neighborhood to see), that is what I will do.'
Film maker Michael Moore ('Bowling for Colombine') is furious about Disney's decision not to put out his new movie 'Fahrenheit 9/11' which is already nominated at the Film Festival in Cannes. The controversial movie shows the way American citizens and The White House react on the 9/11 terrorism attacks. Moore even made connections between George Bush's and Osama Bin Laden's family. Half of the movie is about Iraq. Moore's crew secretly infiltrated American soldiers in action.
According to Moore Disney's CEO Michael Eisner told that he did not want to anger Jeb Bush, the governor of Florida. The movie would complicate an already complicated situation with current and future Disney projects in Florida, and that many millions of dollars of tax breaks and incentives were at stake.
Surely there are different interests at stake....
