A front-page news piece in The New York Times was followed yesterday by an editorial denouncing Disney for censorship and denial of Moore's right to free expression.

Ah, life is good.

[Arkinsaw]

Just a lying liar of the media telling lies for profit.

P.S. I'm a Finn too. :-)

[thackney]

If he was interested in honesty and truthful portrayal, he wouldn't be making the movie.

[Lockbar]

Lumpy Riefenstahl managed to dupe the NYTimes.

Join the club.

So the NYTimes did not check with Disney to confirm the story before they read it.

They must be getting their degrees in journalism from a CrackerJacks box now of days.

In an indignant letter to his supporters, Moore said he had learnt only on Monday that Disney had put the kibosh on distributing the film

That's the most telling line in the article. 

It's one thing to lie to your enemies but in a credible social-structure, a leader who tells lies to his followers to manipulate them into action is left without credible followers.

Not that I think he ever had any. 

Still, there is no lie worse than a lie of manipulation: a white-lie is manslaughter.  A manipulative lie is a serial killer.

Gad! That is a disgusting picture. Michael (Jabba the Hutt) Moore models his new line of one-size-fits-all pants, which will be prominently featured in his new film. Next year, his clothing designer plans to design a matching shirt. Until then, the "red" states have banned all personal appearances.
