I tried that and couldn't make any connections. The only way I could think of a date connection that would be published is if Moore or one of his people or entities (Dog Eat Dog Productions) made a public plea for information or contacts regarding the reconstruction of Iraq. He may have gone through one of the ANSWER/Indymedia local or national boards. In all likelihood he was alerted to the event and sent a crew (either local or his) to get some footage of any of the attendees who would speak.

I think it's a dead-end with the tape being released to the family. MM's off the hook.

I just posted a question on another thread:

How many attendees at this event did the Moore crew "interview"?

Also, was any of this conference shown or referenced in the final cut of the movie?

If so, what was the angle and tone of the coverage of it?
