VIDEO STORES ACROSS THE COUNTRY ARE JOINING IN THE EFFORT TO MAKE SURE AMERICANS SEE FAHRENHEIT 9/11 BEFORE THE ELECTION
Oscar-winning filmmaker and best-selling author Michael Moore will announce the official kickoff to "Fahrenheit for Free" at a "Slacker Uprising Tour" event in Indiana, PA at 8:00 PM, Tuesday, October 26.
Moore is joining forces with over 150 video store operators from across the country in an effort to get as many Americans as possible to see the film before the election. Participating video stores across the country will be waiving the usual rental fee for Fahrenheit 9/11 beginning on October 26.
A recent Harris poll showed that 44 percent of Republicans who have seen the film gave it a positive rating.
"It isn't possible to view this film and come out saying you are voting George W. Bush," stated Moore.
Moore is currently on a 60-city tour to the 20 battleground states to rally non-voters and slackers, America's majority, to give voting a try, just this once. He's offering clean underwear and Ramen noodles to slackers, which has Republicans in his home state of Michigan calling for his arrest.
Moore is appearing on college campuses, arenas, stadiums and field houses. Nearly all venues hold between 5,000 and 15,000 people, with students historically the largest block of non-voters in presidential elections admitted for free at most events.

I know its late to post to this but I am affiliated with one of the stores everyone wants to BAN. But we also rented Fahren-Hype 911 and several other politcal movies for free during that promotion. We covered all sides. So please before you start calling for bans and other retailation against some of our stores check into the details....we do love freedom of speech and let ALL SIDES have their voices heard. No matter how sane or crazy something might be its still our basic right to offer something of this kind of OPEN-MINDED promotion to let people think.
I wish I came across this before but just stumbled upon it while doing a websearch.
