Moore slams 'tax break' block on film
Disney has banned its film company subsidiary from distributing controversial director Michael Moore’s Fahrenheit 9/11, which criticises President George Bush’s handling of the September 11 terrorist attacks and connects the Bush family with Osama bin Laden’s.
Disney chief executive Michael Eisner said yesterday the company “did not want a film in the middle of the political process where we’re such a non-partisan company and our guests, that participate in all of our attractions, do not look for us to take sides”.
